Join Baby Safety Alliance Associate Member Smith, Gambrell, & Russell, LLP on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, at 2 p.m. ET, as they discuss tracking cookies and the California Invasion of Privacy Lawsuits. How California courts apply the 1960s-era California Invasion of Privacy Act, created to stop wiretapping and phone eavesdropping, to website marketing tools remains unsettled. No single compliance measure can eliminate litigation risk. Organizations of all sizes can limit their litigation risk by implementing comprehensive website governance programs that align legal disclosures with actual technical practices. In this presentation, you will learn how to build a defensible website by coordinating legal, privacy, information technology, marketing, and vendor management teams to ensure disclosures, technical controls, and contractual protections work together.


Who Should Attend: C-Suite and E-Commerce Teams.
