Take advantage of this opportunity to familiarize yourself with statutory and case law developments involving data ownership, storage, and protection. 

Attorneys with all levels of practice experience who attend this online seminar will better understand:

• Data as an Asset. One of the most valuable assets of a business is its information; however, despite the time and expense necessary to compile large and valuable databases, traditional intellectual property laws frequently fail to offer significant protection for this data. Learn about data as an asset, the laws/regulation protecting its ownership, the recent statutory and caselaw developments, and how to advise clients and help them protect their database assets.
• Data as an Individual Right. Privacy is one of the fastest growing fields of law throughout the world. Discover which rights individuals have over their personally identifiable information, how lawyers should advise clients who collect, store, and transmit personally identifiable information, the individual rights under most major privacy initiatives (including GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and GLBA), and the key privacy initiatives happening throughout Illinois.
• Data as a Recorded Transaction. Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is revolutionizing the way our markets and economy work. Enhance your understanding of the development, application, and proposed uses for blockchain technology, the development of intellectual property on the blockchain (such as the explosion in digital artwork categorized as non-fungible tokens), and how to advise clients who develop, implement, or interact with blockchain technology or cryptocurrency payment processing.
