Overview

As the Platform Economy becomes the backbone of the emerging information-based economy, businesses must be aware of the legal challenges that come with it. These include concerns related to data privacy, content liability, accessibility, and regulatory compliance matters.

Our expertise spans structuring online transactions, drafting and negotiating e-commerce agreements, and developing privacy policies that comply with data protection laws. Our team closely monitors recent enforcement actions and regulations, such as the 2023 INFORM Consumers Act, which introduces new obligations for online marketplaces, including vendor vetting and consumer-facing disclosures. Additionally, we help clients ensure compliance with data privacy laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
