Session Time: Thur, Nov 5, 2026: 02:30 PM-03:30 PM

This panel will explore the rapidly expanding body of laws restricting the collection, use, and sharing of genetic, biometric, and location data – all deemed highly “sensitive” personal data.   Questions to be addressed include:

  • What policies underlie the different rules that are developing to govern processing each of these types of data?
  • Where are existing state laws consistent in their approach and where do they diverge?
  • Where is law enforcement being most aggressive, and why?
  • What practices can organizations that need to process these types of data (health care providers, researchers, delivery services) do to minimize their legal risk?
