Overview
There are five state privacy laws coming into effect in 2023 (CA, CO, CT, UT, and VA) that enable consumers to opt out of “sales,” “sharing,” and processing of personal data for “targeted advertising.”
Please join IAB and IAB Tech Lab’s General Counsel Michael Hahn, IAB’s Assistant General Counsel Tony Ficarrotta, and IAB Tech Lab’s Senior Director, Privacy & Data, Rowena Lam to discuss:
Industry compliance challenges
MSPA solutions to those challenges
Obligations of MSPA signatories
MSPA’s application to use cases
How the MSPA leverages the IAB Tech Lab’s Global Privacy Platform
What you need to do next to sign-up
The IAB Legal Affairs Council has developed an industry contractual framework – dubbed the IAB Multi-State Privacy Agreement (MSPA) – to aid in compliance with those laws through the use of privacy protective terms that spring into place among a network of signatories and follows the data flows through the digital ad supply chain. By the time of this webinar on December 1, the MSPA will be available for industry participants to sign, so the time is now to learn more.
In the meantime, you can download the MSPA Decision Tree and IAB’s MSPA Explainers for Ad Tech, Advertisers, and Publishers here to get ready.
