AGENDA

1)      Mobile Privacy: Designing for the Future - Moderator: Joanne McNabb, Director of Privacy Education and Policy, Privacy Enforcement and Protection Unit, California Department of Justice, Office of the Attorney General

Advancements in digital technology continue to change the way the world communicates via mobile devices and applications. How do the principles established in the White House's Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights and the FTC's 2012 Privacy Report relate to the development of new services and applications via mobile devices? Which best practices are the most important or productive? What role do state and/or federal governments have in privacy design? How can privacy by design principles best address children's privacy?

2)      Mobile Privacy: Navigating the Changing Landscape of Laws and Lawsuits - Moderator: S. Jenell Trigg, Member, Lerman Senter PLLC

Mobile communications, marketing and services, including LBS, are governed by an alphabet soup of statutes and regulations: TCPA, COPPA, CAN-SPAM, CPNI, etc.  To complicate compliance even further, numerous class action lawsuits in state and federal courts have addressed issues and nuances that the Federal Communications Commission, Federal Trade Commission, and state regulatory agencies or legislatures have not. What are the legal rules of the road for mobile communications and marketing?  How best can a service provider or app developer mitigate the legal risks?
