Privacy & Data Security: Privacy

Fully immersed in all aspects of data privacy, cybersecurity, and information governance, Venable is unique among privacy and cybersecurity practices. We participate in legislative advocacy, rulemakings, and development of new legal standards. Our team advises organizations with regard to industry best practices and drafting codes of conduct and standards, helping them stay compliant with federal, state, international, and self-regulatory requirements. We provide proactive counseling to guide clients through the potential risks and liabilities associated with corporate transactions. And if government enforcement actions or litigation arise, Venable vigorously defends our clients, mounting challenges to agency regulations and litigating privacy issues and class-action lawsuits.

We strengthen the integrity of our client’s data, ecommerce security, and customer or user records; develop internal data collection and use practices; and ensure the creation of sound privacy policies and procedures. We shepherd clients through data-security incidents, and privacy and consumer protection matters, and represent them in connection with corresponding litigation and government enforcement actions. We build and lead coalitions and self-regulatory efforts, and represent leading trade associations in the space.
