1/28: Privacy Policy Workshop

January 28, 2009 12:50 pm to 2:00 pm

Please send RSVP to Amanda Smith.

As part of Data Privacy Day 2009, the Center for Internet and Society is hosting a Privacy Policy Workshop, sponsored by Covington & Burling LLP. The Center's inaugural Consumer Privacy fellow Ryan Calo and Stanford alum Mali Friedman of Covington & Burling will describe the law and policy obligating companies to post notice of their privacy practices, walk through how to write an effective privacy policy, and discuss the future of online notice. This skills-focused presentation may be particularly helpful to students entering in-house or firm practice around technology. The presentation is free and open to the public. Lunch will be served.

She received her J.D. from Stanford Law School in 2006.
