livestreamToday, Wednesday October 24 2018 at 12:15pm EDT (16:15 UTC) the Georgetown Law’s Institute for Technology Law & Policy will co-host a half-day conference COPPA at 20: Protecting Children’s Privacy in the New Digital Era on the 20-year legacy of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and how to protect children’s privacy in the new digital era. Two decades of digital advances have dramatically changed the ways in which children interact with the internet, and the way big data is collected. How well are COPPA and regulators keeping up with challenges to children’s privacy and wellbeing? What are key questions that remain around the interpretation of the law? And what lessons can COPPA provide around novel approaches to self-regulation, the enforcement landscape and the future of broader privacy regulations? Speakers include FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter and Senator Ed Markey. The event will be simulcast on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.

Description: The FTC’s new Rule under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) becomes effective on July 1, 2013. The new Rule marks a major expansion of the long-arm reach of the FTC, both in terms of the entities subject to COPPA’s requirements as well as what data meets the definition of “Personal Information.” “Personal Information,” under the new Rule, now includes purely technical identifiers that currently enjoy near ubiquitous use in the kid-directed online and mobile space but which, in most cases, will now require parental consent come July 1, 2013. Many of these technical identifiers (e.g., UDID, MAC address, IFA) are currently collected by 3rd parties. As reflected in Commissioner Maureen K. Ohlhausen’s dissenting Statement, the FTC may not even have the requisite statutory authority to reach this 3rd party conduct. This presentation will examine the practical scope of the new Rule, the potential for unintended economic consequences, and the possibility of administrative law litigation to have the new Rule declared ultra vires.

net-ceteraOn October 8, 2010, the FTC announced the completion of the Net Cetera Community Outreach Toolkit which is designed to help parents ensure that their children stay safe online. The Toolkit provides helpful information as to how parents can monitor their children’s actions online, including best practices for social networks, online communications, and mobile phones. The FTC continues to consider new rules and regulations to limit the data collected from children online.
