The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is the world's largest organization serving the professional and business interests of attorneys who practice in the legal departments of corporations, associations, nonprofits and other private-sector organizations around the globe.
Each year, more data protection laws are enacted, making it increasingly difficult for organizations to navigate the complicated web of rules as they attempt to leverage their data. This year, eight U.S. states passed new comprehensive privacy laws that will go into effect in the coming years, and Washington and Nevada passed health privacy laws that will go into effect at the end of March 2024. In addition, there have been developments on the federal privacy law front, the FTC has been active on the health data front, several countries have passed or enacted new comprehensive privacy laws, the EU is working on new regulations, and then add GenAI to the mix. During this session, we will discuss:
the key data protection laws going into effect after 2024
the applicability of these laws to your organization
how the laws are similar and key differences in the laws
key compliance areas you should consider focusing on in 2024 given recent litigation (such as tracking technology issues, sensitive data, etc.)
