Alex Dixie and Heather Catchpole have contributed to a comprehensive Practice Note published by Thomson Reuters providing an overview of the Adtech industry and key US and EU privacy laws and regulations, including the FTC Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other US state privacy laws, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the ePrivacy Directive.

The Note also provides invaluable, practical strategies for organisations developing or utilising Adtech to stay ahead of the compliance curve. Access the Note here (Paywall).
