We advise technology companies and other businesses on U.S. data privacy and compliance issues that come out of websites, apps, and other digital practices.
A large part of the work is pre-litigation: assessing a tracking or communications claim, fixing the technical issue where needed, and trying to resolve the matter before it is filed. When a case is already in court, the same issues are handled as defense counsel.
What this work often includes
- U.S. privacy claims involving CIPA and ECPA
- Website tracking, pixels, cookies, and related technologies
- Pre-litigation strategy and technical remediation
- Counseling companies that collect or process data as they grow or enter the U.S. market
The firm’s team includes CIPP/US credentialed counsel. That does not make every privacy regime part of the practice. This page describes the U.S. privacy and tracking work already published on the site.
If a privacy issue is part of a broader commercial dispute, see Litigation & Dispute Resolution. If it arises from a China-U.S. launch, see China-U.S. Cross-Border Business.
