By now, we've all heard of “Big Data,” but many in-house and outside attorneys still do not understand what Big Data is and how it affects their companies and clients and their respective customers. Big Data has the ability to analyze information and predict outcomes that were not possible before, but with this access to Big Data comes big responsibilities. Join Aaron Tantleff of Foley & Lardner LLP as he discusses and shares the legal and ethical risks involved in the collecting, storing, using and sharing of Big Data and the outcomes of its analysis. Topics include a look at Big Data; questions of whether it is legal and if so, is it ethical or acceptable; and exploration of the conflict between traditional privacy laws and Big Data.
