Data Protection Law, Policy and Procedures

Our Cybersecurity, data protection and privacy attorneys counsel clients on a broad spectrum of data collection and data protection best practices and will assist you with minimizing your company’s risk of a data breach.

Data privacy laws on the federal and state level work on a sectoral basis.  Financial, healthcare, employers, consumers and other sectors are governed by a complex web of privacy and data protection regulations that are continuously evolving as online technology changes.  Businesses face new risks regarding the proper handling of employee personal information, healthcare records, financials, and other personal data in line with applicable laws in this age of online based commerce.

Our attorneys can help guide you through the myriad of sectoral data protection and privacy laws and provide you a clear understanding of what state and federal laws and regulations apply to your business. We can also help identify under what scenarios your business could face liability exposure for data breaches, and what you can do to reduce your risk of data breach.

With respect to business websites, our cybersecurity, data protection and privacy attorneys can draft or review privacy notices and policies, and provide feedback on what the law requires to ensure that your commercial online or e-commerce presence and/or web-based marketing or advertising does not trigger risk exposure to applicable federal and state unfair and deceptive trade practices statutes.
