On April 8, ANA and the 4A’s, IAB, and NAI announced the creation of the new “Privacy for America” coalition, which will work for the enactment of comprehensive federal privacy and data security legislation. At the center of the new coalition is a new paradigm for a national law that aims to make personal data less vulnerable and sets a clear, enforceable standard for privacy protection. Stu Ingis of Venable LLP, who is leading the coalition for the industry, will provide an overview of the coalition and how members can participate.  

Speaker:
