Like the Uniform Commercial Code (adopted by 50 states) and the Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act (adopted by 46 states), the Uniform Commission’s new model law — the Uniform Personal Data Protection Act (UPDPA) — could see widespread state-by-state adoption.

Please join a one-hour webinar featuring key players involved in the drafting and development of the Uniform Law Commission’s (ULC) new model privacy law.

The discussion will address:

• What is the Uniform Law Commission?
• What is the background for developing this model privacy law?
• What is in UPDPA, and how does it differ from GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, etc.?
• Does UPDPA provide meaningful privacy protection and individual rights?
• How would compliance with UPDPA be achieved and enforced?
• What is the current status of UPDPA in the states, and what are its future prospects?
• Would UPDPA deter federal privacy legislation, or serve as a model for it?

We invite you to submit additional questions for discussion to dcevents@sidley.com.
