LOTHAR DETERMANN: So thanks so much for the previous panel. We actually do not have a break, so everybody who is stepping out to get more caffeine, it is not necessary because we have some expert presenters here that will keep you at your toes. Denise Vieira is commercial council at Zynga. She was previously with other hot companies, with VMware. And also taught as an [INAUDIBLE] professor at USF law school, and she has disclosed that she was my student. DENISE ...

AMY TAUB: Hello, my name is Amy Taub and I'm a program attorney with PLI. I would like to welcome you to today's briefing, "Making Sense of the New HIPAA/HITECH Era." Before we begin, I have some administrative announcements. This briefing will be one hour in length. Please feel free to send questions at any time during the briefing. Please remember that you have access to materials for this briefing via the course handbook tab in the program ...

JOHN DELANEY: So next up, we have Andrew Serwin, who is the executive director and CEO of the Lares Institute and the founding chair of Foley & Lardner privacy practice. He is an internationally-recognized thought leader regarding information and its role in the global economy. And he's handled some of the leading matters before the federal trade commission, in information security, COPPA-- which we just heard a little bit about-- social media, ...

Recorded on: Feb. 8, 2013

JOHN DELANEY: OK, we're back. A couple of housekeeping matters. As I mentioned at the beginning, we look forward to your feedback. Let us know what you like. Let us know about other topics that we can cover next year. We hope to have you back next year. So if you have thoughts about other issues you're seeing in your own practice that we haven't been able to touch upon in a day long conference, we'd love to hear about it. So please fill out the evaluation ...

Recorded on: Feb. 8, 2013

JOHN DELANEY: We're back. I hope everyone had a nice lunch break. As I mentioned before the break, we're going to be talking about mobile apps and related legal issues. And we're fortunate to have two speakers on this topic. They're going to speak not as a group but separately. But I'll introduce them both now. Speaking first will be to my farthest right Cynthia Tune, who is senior counsel at Pillsbury's San Francisco office, where she leads the ...

JOHN F. DELANEY: Every year, I kind of provide an overview of some of the topics that we're not going to cover in depth later in the conference, and also touch on some of the hot issues and new cases that have come out since we last got together. And also I want to start by just highlighting the explosive growth of social media. So on slide two is a quick roadmap of what I'll be covering over the next hour. As mentioned, I want to step back from ...

IAN BALLON: So our next panel is Best Practices in a Changing Data Privacy Landscape. And just to have to make sure that these experts on best practices in a changing landscape are kept on their toes, we're trying to usher them in a few moments early, pulling them out of their calls or preparation or whatever else they were doing, just to see how nimble they are in dealing with unplanned events. Great. And we've got four experts in this area for ...

Recorded on: Jan. 24, 2013

IAN BALLON: The first panel is focusing on understanding the science and technology of behavioral advertising and you'd be hard-pressed to find two better speakers to address that. Professor Chris Hoofnagle is the Director of the Information Privacy Program Center at the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology and a senior staff attorney at the Samuelson Law Technology and Public Policy Clinic. Chris is widely recognized as an expert on data privacy ...

Recorded on: Jan. 24, 2013

SPEAKER: So we're about ready to get started. Well, this has been a great day, and we've had some great speakers. But in many respects, we've saved the best for last. At a class action litigation conference the last word really should be from a judge, because all of the cases and everything that we do really is determined by the judge in the case. And in the area of data privacy class action litigation, there's really no better judge to speak to ...

Recorded on: Jan. 24, 2013

IAN BALLON: Welcome back. The next two segments are going to be combined into one. They're both presentations dealing with defense perspectives. The first part is case law and trends from a defense perspective, and the second part is the in-house counsel panel. But we thought it actually would be interesting to combine the two. So we're going to talk about the cases and the trends and intersperse the presentation with panel discussions. And for the ...

Recorded on: Jan. 24, 2013

IAN BALLON: OK. Why don't we get started. Our next panel is on Class Certification Issues. And we have as our speaker, my colleague Rob Harrington, who's a shareholder at Greenberg Traurig in the Los Angeles office. He also was the Chair of our firm's Product Liability and Mass Tort practice. He's successfully defended more than 75 class action cases in his career. He's also author of the bestselling book, Verdict for the Defense, which provides ...

Recorded on: Jan. 24, 2013

SPEAKER: And we move straight away into the second panel, which is the plaintiffs' perspective on data privacy and class action suits. And our speakers are Jay Edelson and Chandler Givens from Edelson McGuire, and my colleague, Rob Harrington. Jay Edelson is known to many people in the audience as one of the preeminent plaintiffs lawyers in this area. He is the founder and managing partner of Edelson McGuire, and has been lead counsel in a number ...

REED FREEMAN: Well, welcome back. And we are on the home stretch here. But another benefit of being the chair of a program is other than only having to speak for half of a session, which is great, is you get to decide the order of the program. And we intentionally had this last. Not just because it made sense and was kind of tying together everything we've talked about today, but because it's just a really spectacular panel. And this is based on the ...

Recorded on: Nov. 14, 2012

REED FREEMAN: We are ready to move on to class action risk. This is a one hour presentation that will be followed by the most productive part of the day, which will be lunch. I'm delighted again this year to be joined by my partner and friend, Dave McDowell of Morrison Foerster. Dave is a member and a former co-chair of Morrison Foerster's Consumer Litigation and Class Action practice group. He's defended about a million putative class action claims ...

Recorded on: Nov. 14, 2012

D. REED FREEDMAN, JR: We are next going to be joined by-- one of the pleasures of getting to chair a program at PLI is that you get an opportunity to invite some of the real leaders in the bar worldwide to present to the audience. And in a lot of cases, particularly today, you get to invite some of your good friends as well, and they say, yes, which is especially pleasing to me. And so with that introduction, let me please introduce you to my friend ...

Recorded on: Nov. 14, 2012

D REED FREEMAN: So with that, let me introduce our first speaker. And we are really, really honored to have him here. It's his second year here, and whether he likes it or not, he's going to be here every year. I'll just go get him, down in Sunnyvale. Shane Wiley is a certified information privacy professional. He's vice president of privacy and data governance at Yahoo!. He leads the privacy and data governance teams at Yahoo!, supporting nearly ...

Recorded on: Nov. 14, 2012

REED FREEMAN: All right. I think we're ready to get started again. That all right? All right. Well, welcome back from lunch, and nothing is a better post-lunch topic of discussion than European privacy law. This is a test. If you can remain attentive through this, we'll all be very impressed. We are fortunate and really, actually, quite fortunate to have two of the world's experts on privacy law and the European Union and in Canada as it relates ...

PETER BROWN: [INAUDIBLE] lawyer and perhaps just a little bit of a geek. All right. With that, Lori. LORI E. LESSER: Hi. Thank you very much to everyone who came this morning. We have a few geek challenges to our own technology given the storm. So my co-presenter is Dan Regard, who you will hear as a disembodied voice coming over the system. Dan is a lawyer, a programmer, and a consultant. He's been working with legal technology for more than 20 ...

Recorded on: Nov. 12, 2012

PETER BROWN: One of the issues that is on top of every client's mind and every in-house counsel's mind is security and hacking. We have a distinguished pair of speakers on that area. And this is a reprise of a terrific program, which occurred last year. Our first speaker, David Opderbeck is the Professor of Law and Director of the Gibbons Institute of Law, Science and Technology at Seton University School of Law. He's a proud graduate of Seton Hall. ...

Recorded on: Nov. 12, 2012

LORI LESSER: That's a good reason to shop online. No one knows what aisle you're in. One or the other they're going to get the information from you it seems. So our next two speakers we have Rachel Beth Evans. Rachel joined Accenture in 2003 and is currently Accenture's Director of Legal Services, IT Offerings, and Alliances Legal Counsel. She's been an in-house technology lawyer for 18 years. Rachel grew up in Chicago and now lives in San Francisco ...

PETER BROWN: Hello, everyone. I hope you had a brisk walk outside. It's still pretty cold out there. It's early winter weather in New York. This afternoon, we're going to hit some of the meat of the topics. And also fortunately, none of these programs have been modified because our speakers had difficulty attending. So we're going to be covering big data, cloud computing, and computer hacking, three very important topics. And really, I think, some ...

Recorded on: Oct. 18, 2012

JAMES CHARNE: Welcome back to our second panel on the regulatory overlay. We have another outstanding panel here. I'd like to introduce our speakers. To my immediate right is Jamie Cook. Jamie's been an attorney and executive in the interactive entertainment and personal computer industries for more than 30 years. I've known Jamie since at least 1988 and can attest that he's a wonderful lawyer. He's currently General Counsel and Executive Vice ...

Recorded on: Oct. 16, 2012

ROBERT TAYLOR: Our next speaker is my co-chair, David Bender, who's already been introduced. And David will be talking to us about intellectual property issues that come up in connection with cloud computing. DAVID BENDER: Thanks, Bob. System. Y2K. Next generation. Paradigm shift. Information superhighway, and the latest buzz words or buzz term, cloud computing. What's it all about? Well, let's try and find out. This is where I'd like to go over ...

Recorded on: Sep. 20, 2012

CYDNEY A. TUNE: All right, welcome back, those on the live webcast who have reconnected with us and those in the room. I am very happy to introduce a panel on tracking and behavioral advertising, and the privacy issues that it engenders, the benefits, and risks. It's a world we're all experiencing. Some of the top trends for 2012 that I didn't have time to talk about at the beginning, one of them has to do with ad buying and the movement online, ...

Recorded on: Jun. 12, 2012

JANINE BOWEN: We'll have our next two presenters come up as I'm introducing them. That's a great discussion on contract issues. Now we'll get into just a little more detail on the mock negotiation front. Our first presenter-- and actually I'll just introduce them bot because they'll be tag teaming, I'm sure-- is Christine Lyon. Christine is a partner in the Palo Alto office of Morrison Foerster. Christine's practice focuses on privacy and employment ...
