California SB 690 could mean big changes due to the growing volume of lawsuits targeting common website tech like cookies, tracking pixels and analytics tools. While the legislation could narrow one avenue of privacy litigation, companies should not assume the broader risk has disappeared. Retail & E-Commerce Co-Leads Bryna Dahlin and David Krueger, along with Managing Associate Lauryn Robinson, break down what's coming. #BeneschLaw #DataPrivacy #Cybersecurity #RetailLaw #Ecommerce #CIPA #WebsitePrivacy #PrivacyLitigation #CaliforniaLaw https://lnkd.in/ee7KBJfv

Delaware just expanded consumer privacy rights, and the changes are worth your attention. On September 2, 2026, the state signed HB 380 and HB 381, updating both the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act and the state’s breach notification law. A few changes stand out: - Consumers can now ask whether organizations are using inferences and profiling to make significant decisions about them - In some cases, consumers can request the actual third parties that received their personal data, not only categories - Organizations can limit access to especially sensitive data, such as Social Security numbers and account passwords, and instead confirm they hold it If your privacy program still reflects the prior version of the law, now is the time to review your notices, request workflows, and data disclosure practices. #Data #DataPrivacy #ConsumerPrivacy #cybersecurity

Once back in — revoke access to every third party app connected to your account, change your password, and enable two factor authentication immediately. 4. Then review your sent messages and report the fraudulent ones to the platform directly. Your name was used against the people who trust you. Take it back fast.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is signaling it will police personalized pricing—the use of consumers' personal data to set individualized prices, discounts and offers. The proposed enforcement policy statement stops short of a categorical ban. But the FTC also makes clear that companies should clearly disclose that a price is personalized, the basis for that personalization and the data behind it. The FTC says failing to do so is likely to violate Section 5 of the FTC Act. Our Cybersecurity and Privacy team Kirk Nahra, Arianna Evers, Ali Jessani and Sarah Litwin break down what the proposal covers, where enforcement risk is highest and what companies should assess now.

📱🔐 Your phone number is increasingly becoming your digital identity. This is a timely reminder that cybersecurity is not just about protecting devices—it is about protecting the connections between our devices, numbers, accounts and identities. One practical improvement everyone should consider: wherever possible, move critical accounts away from SMS-based authentication and use an authenticator app or stronger authentication method. #CyberSecurity #OnlineSafety #Privacy #IdentityProtection #DigitalAwareness
You Think Your Phone Has Been Cloned — Here Is How to Tell and What to Do Phone cloning happens when someone copies your SIM card or mirrors your device — giving them access to your calls, your texts, your two factor authentication codes, and every account tied to your number. The signs are subtle. Calls you didn't make showing up on your bill. Authentication codes arriving for logins you didn't attempt. Your phone suddenly losing signal for no reason. Here is what you need to do: 1. Call your carrier immediately and ask them to check for any suspicious SIM activity or duplicate accounts on your number. 2. Request a SIM swap lock — this prevents anyone from transferring your number to a new SIM without appearing in person with your ID. 3. Change the passwords on every account that uses your phone number for two factor authentication. 4. Then switch from SMS authentication to an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Authy — these cannot be intercepted through SIM cloning. Your phone number is an identity document. Protect it like one. Your data is yours — let's keep it that way. One privacy blind spot. One practical fix. Every week.
