What's New and Exciting in Privacy Law

Privacy law has become a more significant area of practice in many law firms. With the advent of GDPR and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), it is incumbent upon information professionals to understand these acts, their practical implications, and how we as information professionals may better assist legal professionals in this practice area. This topic is timely for all information professionals because they are often asked to retrieve information on individuals. A good understanding of how privacy law works, the type of personal information that may or may not be available, and options for people to safeguard their personal information will make research in this area more efficient.
