Data Rules: How Digital Media Services Grapple with Collection, Use, and Monetization of User Data


This program will serve as a primer on key legal issues surrounding the collection, use, and monetization of user data, from the perspectives of legal counsel for a digital media service and legal counsel for consumers.

The program will occur in three parts, first with a broad overview of data privacy laws in the United States, as provided by an in-house counsel at a digital media service.

The second section will focus on the rules surrounding cross-platform and cross-media data sharing, and personally identifiable information as opposed to anonymized aggregate data.

The third portion will focus on the European Union and the differing data privacy regime governing similar activities in the EU, and how that directive is interpreted by the EU's different member states.

Panelist(s): F Paul Pittman, Laura Pirri, Ot van Daalen
