Overview
Robinson Bradshaw's Cybersecurity & Privacy Practice Group brings together a multidisciplinary team of attorneys to help clients navigate the rapidly evolving areas of cybersecurity and privacy law. We partner with clients across the country and across industries to provide solution-driven legal guidance around cybersecurity and privacy compliance matters.
We counsel clients regarding developments in cybersecurity and privacy laws, both domestically and abroad, and develop business-friendly solutions to manage legal risk and obligations. Our experience includes advising clients on the collection and handling of personal information, including under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe and the United Kingdom and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) and similar U.S. state-level privacy regimes, and on implementing privacy by design and utilizing data assets and analytics. When clients face compliance concerns, we guide them on online and e-commerce privacy obligations, and on privacy and data security obligations specific to the financial services and health care industries and other highly regulated businesses.
