Areas of Expertise
Global Privacy Compliance
We have advised on privacy compliance for the world’s biggest brands, and are experts in, among others, U.S. privacy (including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)), the General Protection Data Regulation (GDPR), and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Privacy Programs
A business’s size, industry, objectives, risk tolerance, and budget all determine what an effective privacy program looks like. We focus on building the right privacy program for the business, and helping implement and operationalize it.
Product Counseling
Good privacy begins at the beginning—in product development. We work with organizations to consider the privacy impacts of early-stage initiatives, and build Privacy by Design programs to help privacy run smarter, not harder.
Due Diligence
Diligence related to funding, sales events, and IPOs bring privacy into sharp focus. We have helped companies navigate privacy diligence matters from the buy and sell sides, and have helped private equity and venture capital firms understand privacy risks of potential investments.
International Expansion
We have helped companies of all sizes and industries strategize their international expansion, especially to markets like Europe where privacy laws and culture around privacy are more advanced.
Privacy as a Brand Differentiator
Privacy is now a key business differentiator. Privacy-enabled technologies (like encrypted communication platforms and blockchain) and privacy-forward companies (like Mozilla and Apple) have changed the conversation around privacy. Let’s get you involved.
Privacy for Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing campaigns come with specific compliance requirements. We help companies navigate these requirements and create sales and marketing initiatives that run smoothly, effectively, and with minimal risk.
Building Internal Privacy Culture
Privacy culture defines how well privacy works within an organization. Educating workforce on privacy is a legal requirement, but done well, it can also streamline workflows, reduce churn, and boost employee engagement. We have worked with companies of all sizes to imagine and implement privacy culture, including a coveted global Privacy Champions program at Uber with 200+ participants and a waitlist.
Clarity from Chaos
Lately, privacy laws are changing weekly. We provide clear, actionable updates and guidance, focusing on practical application and operational impacts. We help our clients cut through the noise and discover what is meaningful and relevant for their organization.
“The beginning is the most important part of the work.”
