The amount of data amassed on the internet is astronomically large and growing each day. Search engines and archives regularly scrape data on the internet to provide useful indexing and search capabilities to users, while other businesses scrape data from websites, sometimes for the repackaging and resale of information. Don’t miss this comprehensive look at the types of scraping on the internet, the legal perils associated with scraping data from websites, and the risks associated with using scraped data. Civil practice attorneys, federal civil practitioners, intellectual property lawyers, and privacy/security law counsel with intermediate practice experience who attend this online seminar will learn: what constitutes data scraping – both automated and manual; when data scraping is legal and illegal; the legal risks associated with data scraping; the status of claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, specifically after HiQ v. LinkedIn; other issues facing data scrapers, including breach of contract, copyright infringement, and trespass concerns; and how the right of publicity is implicated when using scraped personal data.
