Credit Reporting, Privacy and Data Security

Credit Reporting, Privacy and Data SecurityPractical insight into credit reporting, privacy and data security

In this digital age, consumer data is the coin of the realm. But, with the benefits of that data come legal obligations to protect the privacy and security of consumers' personal information from hackers, identity thieves and other criminals. Compliance with the laws and regulations that apply to the collection, use, sale, or transfer of information about consumers is critical to corporate risk management.

The lawyers in Hudson Cook, LLP's Credit Reporting, Privacy and Data Security practice area work with clients to navigate the ever-growing compendium of privacy, data security, and credit reporting laws, regulations and guidelines. These issues touch on every part of an organization, from product development to marketing, underwriting, customer relations management, operations, technology applications and vendor management.

Lawyers in our Credit Reporting, Privacy and Data Security practice area collectively have decades of experience, both within and outside government, in the areas of privacy, data security and credit reporting. Our clients include companies in a variety of traditional and emerging fields, including lending, banking, consumer reporting, collections, marketing and information solutions.
