Understanding Data Protection & Privacy Law

Data Protection & Privacy Law is a legal framework designed to govern how organizations collect, process, store, and secure individuals’ personal information. This may include data such as names, addresses, contact details, financial records, and other personally identifiable information (PII).

The goal of these laws is to safeguard individual privacy and prevent unauthorized access or misuse of sensitive information. Many countries enforce specific regulations requiring businesses to follow strict data handling standards.

Non-compliance can lead to serious consequences including fines, lawsuits, reputational damage, and loss of customer trust. Therefore, companies must implement strong data protection policies, such as encryption, access controls, and breach response plans.

At The Trademark Register, our experienced legal professionals help ensure your business stays compliant and protects its data assets. We provide tailored legal guidance to help you manage personal data responsibly and confidently navigate the complexities of modern privacy laws.

Data Protection and Privacy Laws in the United States

In the United States, the foundational law governing data protection and privacy is the Privacy Act of 1974. This legislation controls how federal agencies collect, use, and share personal information, granting individuals specific rights over their data held by the government. Beyond this, various laws and regulations guide businesses and organizations in responsibly handling personal information to protect privacy rights. Key regulations include:

General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR)

A European Union regulation impacting U.S. companies that process or store personal data of EU citizens. GDPR sets standards for data handling, requires breach notifications, and grants individuals enhanced privacy rights. It has been effective since May 25, 2018.

California
Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

Effective since 2020, this law regulates how businesses collect, use, and sell personal data of California residents. CCPA grants consumers rights such as knowing what information is collected, requesting deletion, and opting out of data sales.

Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

HIPAA governs the use and disclosure of personal health information by healthcare providers, insurers, and related entities. It enforces strict privacy and security standards and grants patients certain rights over their health data.

Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)

COPPA regulates the online collection of personal information from children under 13 years old. It mandates parental consent and imposes strict rules on the use and disclosure of children's data by websites, apps, and online services.
