Children’s privacy is a hot-button issue for both legislators and regulators, and companies that process children’s and teens' data should be tracking new legal developments in this space. These new developments include the Federal Trade Commission’s updates to the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) Rule, which go into effect on June 23, 2025, as well as new laws passing at the state level that are expanding substantive children’s privacy protections (e.g., Arkansas) and creating age verification requirements (e.g., Utah). There are also notable updates surrounding age appropriate design codes and the legal challenges those have faced throughout the country.
In this installment of WilmerBytes, a series of half-hour webinars addressing timely topics in cybersecurity and privacy, we invite you to join WilmerHale Partners Kirk Nahra and Arianna Evers and Counsel Ali Jessani as they discuss these and other important updates in children’s and teens' privacy.
*CLE credit is not available for those who watch a recording of the webinar.
WilmerHale has been accredited by the New York State and California State Continuing Legal Education Boards as a provider of continuing legal education. This program is being planned with the intention to offer CLE credit in California and non-transitional credit in New York for attendees who join the live presentation. This program, therefore, is being planned with the intention to offer CLE credit for experienced New York attorneys only. Attendees of this program may be able to claim England & Wales CPD. WilmerHale has been approved as a Colorado Certified Provider, as recognized by the Colorado Supreme Court Continuing Legal and Judicial Education Committee. We will apply for Colorado CLE (after the program) if requested. The type and amount of credit awarded will be determined solely by the Colorado Supreme Court. New Jersey grants reciprocal credit for programs that are approved in New York. We can also issue Connecticut credit. All attendees, regardless of jurisdiction, will receive a uniform certificate of attendance that shows the states in which the program was approved. Attendees who need credit in another jurisdiction can use the uniform certificate of attendance to self-apply. CLE credit is not available for on-demand webinar recordings.
