As the cannabis and hemp industries continue to grow, they bring with them an increasing need to navigate complex legal landscapes. One area that has emerged as particularly challenging is privacy law, where evolving regulations intersect with the burgeoning commercial cannabis market. To address these challenges, Foley Partner Aaron Tantleff will join the California Lawyers Association (CLA) to lead a webinar titled “Privacy Law Issues Confronting the Cannabis and Hemp Economy.”
The online session, aimed at California lawyers, will provide valuable insights into privacy law concepts and how they affect businesses operating within the cannabis and hemp sectors. As the marijuana and hemp industries face heightened scrutiny, participants will learn how to identify privacy-related issues in cannabis and hemp commerce and the best strategies for addressing these concerns.
Key Takeaways from the Webinar
- Understanding Privacy Law in Cannabis and Hemp: Tantleff, a member of Foley’s Technology Transactions, Cybersecurity, and Privacy Practice, will guide attendees through the unique privacy challenges faced by cannabis and hemp companies.
- Spotting Privacy Issues: One of the central themes of the session is recognizing the privacy risks inherent in cannabis and hemp operations, particularly when dealing with sensitive customer information and data handling.
- Approaching Privacy Scenarios: Tantleff will also provide practical advice on how to analyze privacy concerns within these industries and develop compliance strategies that align with state and federal regulations.
Why Attend?
Cannabis and hemp businesses are required to comply with a variety of state-level regulations that govern the collection, use, and protection of consumer data. These regulations, coupled with federal privacy laws and the general complexities of operating in a highly regulated sector, make privacy compliance a critical issue for businesses and legal professionals alike.
Attorneys working with cannabis and hemp clients or in privacy law may find this session particularly beneficial as they seek to develop an understanding of the unique regulatory framework surrounding privacy in the cannabis industry.
