"U.S. Data Privacy Update" Webinar by Wuersch & Gering LLP On Thursday September 21, 8 a.m. EST, 14:00 hrs. CET Wuersch & Gering LLP (WG), will hold a U.S. Data Privacy Update webinar focused on the concerns of its international clients with subsidiaries in the U.S. The U.S. regulatory approach to protection of personally identifiable information (PII) varies substantially from that of the European Union. While Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides comprehensive data protection, the U.S. relies on a complex system of federal and state laws, oversight by the Federal Trade Commission, and common law principles. The requirements of these regulatory instruments may overlap, dovetail, and sometimes contradict each other, raising significant compliance challenges for companies. The EU’s focus on the enforcement of the GDPR, the growing need for data flow across the Atlantic, and companies’ requirements that their vendors and partners demonstrate data protection compliance have made data privacy one of the fastest growing and most rapidly changing areas of regulation in the United States, both at the federal level and increasingly at the state level. Carl van der Zandt, partner at WG, will discuss compliance with U.S. data privacy law with Rowena Dungca, senior counsel at WG serving many international clients on a variety of matters, including US data privacy, and Paula Bruening, counsel, focusing on data privacy at WG and former Global Director of Privacy Policy at Intel Corporation. If you would like to attend this free webinar, please email Rachelle Saint-Firmin at rachelle.saintfirmin@wg-law.com no later than Friday, September 16, 2023.
