Data privacy lawyers specialize in the legal frameworks surrounding data privacy, including regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Their expertise lies in advising organizations on how to collect, store, and use personal data while adhering to these regulations.
GDPR and CCPA compliance is crucial for businesses operating in the European Union and California, respectively. These regulations impose strict obligations on organizations to protect the privacy rights of individuals, including the right to access, rectify, and erase personal data. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in significant fines and reputational damage.
