    Ep. 97 - Buy your CISO a coffee: Advice on CCPA, Amendments, Identity & More

    Privacy enforcement is evolving quickly — and brands can no longer rely on “vendor limitations” as an excuse. In this episode of The Privacy Huddle, Colleen Barry sits down with Ezra Sternstein (AMC Global Media) and Max Anderson (Ketch) to unpack the latest privacy enforcement trends, identity management challenges, vendor accountability, and the growing convergence of privacy and cybersecurity.

    Ep. 96 - The SECURE Data Act, Demand Letters & the U.S. Privacy Summit

    Some days, the content is great but the tech has other plans. Please bear with the video quality on this one. In the latest Privacy Huddle, Colleen Barry sits down with Alysa Hutnik, Partner at Kelley Drye, to cover three things on every privacy leader's radar right now: The SECURE Data Act. Not because it's crossing the finish line anytime soon, but because the elements inside it, particularly around third-party auditing and compliance certification, are signals worth paying attention to now, before they show up elsewhere. Demand letters. They're not going away. But having the right consent management setup, clean tag configuration, and a defensible banner isn't just good hygiene, it's what gives legal teams something to work with when the letters land. The U.S. Privacy Summit is back. October 15th, San Francisco, Convene. Free to attend. The anti-conference returns for year two. Watch the full episode.

    Ep. 95 - What Regulators Are Saying Now (IAPP Privacy Summit 2026)

    Frictionless opt-outs keep coming up. Now we’re hearing what that actually means in practice. In this week’s Privacy Huddle, Maxwell Anderson joins Colleen Barry live from the Ketch booth at IAPP to break down what’s coming directly from regulators and recent enforcement conversations. The headline isn’t new. The expectations are just getting more specific. Regulators are focused on how opt-outs are implemented, not just whether they exist. And that’s where things start to break down. Frictionless doesn’t mean “easier UX.” It means removing barriers entirely: ✔️ One-click opt-outs, not multi-step flows ✔️ No unnecessary data collection to process a request ✔️ No redirect loops or buried links ✔️ No conflicting paths between banners, forms, and systems Because if the process introduces friction, it introduces risk. There’s also a broader signal behind all of this: responsibility sits with the business, not the vendor. If your implementation doesn’t hold up, it’s your name on the investigation. We also got into a recurring source of confusion across teams: this isn’t a cookie banner problem. It’s about how clearly you present “Do Not Sell or Share,” and whether that choice is actually enforced across your environment.

    Ep. 94 - What the Latest Enforcement Actions Signal

    Everyone predicted the enforcement wave. Now it’s here. In this week’s Privacy Huddle, Alysa Hutnik, from Kelley Drye, joins Colleen Barry to break down what the latest settlements from Texas and California are signaling for privacy teams.

    Ep. 93 - Inside the CLA annual privacy summit: hot topics

    Privacy enforcement in California is accelerating — and companies are feeling the pressure. In this episode of Privacy Huddle, recorded at the California Lawyers Association Annual Privacy Summit at UCLA, Ketch Head of Marketing Colleen sits down with privacy experts Celine and Max to break down the biggest themes emerging from the conference. The conversation covers the growing role of regulators, why enforcement actions are increasing, and what companies are getting wrong about consent management platforms (CMPs) and privacy vendors. They also discuss why storing consent signals only in the browser may not meet regulatory expectations — and how companies should rethink record-keeping, vendor accountability, and technical architecture. The episode also explores an important new development: California’s DELETE Act, the state’s data broker law introducing the upcoming DROP deletion mechanism and new compliance obligations starting August 1. If you work in privacy, legal, compliance, or data governance, this discussion highlights key risks regulators are focusing on and how organizations should prepare.

    Ep. 92 - Children's Privacy (U.S. requirements)

    In this week's episode of the Privacy Huddle, we’re diving into the topic that kept resurfacing at Privacy State of the Union: children’s privacy and age signals. If you think this is just a COPPA (under 13) issue, think again. Between app store age verification laws, state-level opt-in requirements, and evolving enforcement expectations, brands are now dealing with: Jurisdiction-specific obligations (under 13, 15, 16, 17… it depends) Age signals flowing in from app stores and potentially browsers The reality that “we’re 18+” is no longer a strategy And perhaps the hardest part? There’s no “easy button.” Age gating isn’t just a widget. It touches consent, identity, data use, and downstream enforcement. If you can tie identity together for advertising, regulators will expect you to do it for compliance, too. Watch as Alysa Hutnik, Maxwell Anderson, and Colleen Barry break down what brand leaders should be thinking about now, and why 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for kids’ privacy.

    In hashtag#PrivacyHuddle Episode #89, Alysa Hutnik joins Colleen Barry to discuss CCPA rulemaking, state sweeps, and more: 1️⃣ ADMT + Risk Assessments: New rules under hashtag#CCPA are not just more of the same. Think executive sign-offs, a clear distinction between "new" and "existing" processing, and ADMT implications that go beyond consumers to employees and B2B contacts. 2️⃣ The multi-state GPC sweep: If your site isn’t honoring Global Privacy Control signals, regulators across CA, CO, CT, and more are watching—and asking questions. Multiple states, multiple letters, multiple pain points. It's not just about GPC; it's about being ready for any scrutiny. 3️⃣ Andddd… the full agenda for the October 23rd U.S. Privacy Summit in San Francisco is now LIVE 🤩 from regulator fireside chats, to practitioner panels, this is gonna be a good one folks. If you're attending, we want to know what YOU would ask the FTC, CPPA, and CA AG. Drop questions in the comments!

    Ep. 88 - Privacy UX in Auto Industry Ranked: Rivian, Honda & More with Privacy4Cars

    What does GOOD privacy UX look like in the auto industry? For the first time, we have real benchmarks—thanks to a massive new report from Privacy4Cars. In this episode of #PrivacyHuddle, Colleen Barry sits down with Merry M. and Andrea Amico (founder of Privacy4Cars) to unpack their groundbreaking research into privacy user experience across 49 automotive brands. From cookie banners to web portals, they graded how auto companies handle privacy notices, consumer choices, and transparency. Here’s what we discovered: ✅ Correct GPC (Global Privacy Control) implementation is catching on—but 1/3 of brands still forget to mention it. 🚫 One carmaker told consumers: “Don’t like our data terms? Don’t buy the car.” ⚡ After a CCPA settlement, Honda transformed its privacy UX from poor to excellent—in just weeks. 🏆 Only one brand achieved a perfect 5.0 score on web browser experience: Rivian, powered by Ketch. If you’re a UX designer, privacy professional, or auto industry insider, this conversation is a must-watch. It’s proof that consumer privacy doesn’t have to be painful—it can be transparent, user-friendly, and even a competitive advantage. 📌 Watch the full interview now, and check the pinned comment for a link to the full Privacy4Cars report.

    Ep. 85 - Takeaways from the California AG's latest settlement (Healthline Media)

    In the latest privacy huddle, Max Anderson and Alysa Hutnik focus on the recent $1.55 million settlement involving Healthline Media due to privacy violations. The California Attorney General highlighted issues with consumer opt-out processes and the company's failure to adhere to CCPA requirements. The discussion revealed that many companies struggle with misconfigured privacy settings and lack knowledge about available tools for managing sensitive data. As expectations for privacy compliance rise, practitioners are urged to align their budgets accordingly, especially with the potential for increased penalties from multi-state enforcement actions.

    Ep. 80 - What regulators won't overlook in 2025

    At IAPP Global Privacy Summit, U.S. regulators delivered a clear message: they're looking out for the consumer, and the grace period is over for complying with tablestakes requirements. In the Ketch booth, Colleen Barry sat down with Red Clover Advisors Founder & CEO (and privacy podcast host) Jodi Daniels to unpack the biggest takeaways from this year’s regulator panels. 🔥 Here are the highlights: ✔ Read the FAQs. Regulators aren't publishing sweeps and advisories for kicks. They're telling you what to prioritize. Ignore them at your peril! ✔ “Show your work.” Math class rules apply. If you want partial credit, you've gotta document how you got to the decision. Regulators want to see your processes and understand how you've come to decisions. ✔ QA your consumer-facing contact points. Especially privacy email inboxes! Regulators test them like a mystery shopper, and it's likely to be the first point of inquiry. ✔ Regulators are friendly, but there are a few topics that won't get a pass. Global Privacy Control? Opt out of sale? They've been telling you to enforce these for years, and there are no more excuses. If you didn’t catch the Summit’s headline panels, this is the practical advice you need to bring home.

    Ep. 78 - What US State AGs really want from brands

    "More activity doesn’t mean more enforcement." When Paul Singer tells us what U.S. state attorneys general are focused on, we listen👂 If your privacy strategy treats regulators and enforcers like boogeymen, it’s time to rethink your playbook. In the latest hashtag#PrivacyHuddle, Paul tells Colleen Barry what U.S. state AGs really want from brands. Key takeaways: 💡 Why “being a good corporate citizen” matters more than perfect compliance 💡 The real reasons for hyper focus on the auto sector 💡 Why knowing who enforces the law is as important as knowing the law itself 💡 How state AGs are approaching AI (and what they’re still figuring out) This one is packed with pragmatic, practical advice. Don't miss it!

    Ep. 77 - Honda enforcement order and consumer inquiry trends

    In our latest Privacy Huddle, we break down the California Privacy Protection Agency's Honda enforcement order—from the consumer perspective 💡 Regulators are pressure-testing the consumer journey. Counting clicks. Reading confirmation emails. Asking: “Would a normal person—not a privacy lawyer—understand this?” (Spoiler: often, no.) Alysa Hutnik and Colleen Barry cover: 🚗 Honda and the consumer journey: why opt-out UX is now a regulatory bullseye. 📬 Creative consumer inquiries: privacy inbox flooded with spam, bots...and ChatGPT-generated complaints? 🗺️ Data mapping & tech readiness: knowing “what’s under the hood” helps a lot when enforcement hits. Bottom line: If your consent flow is confusing, your DSR process is siloed, or your data map is a stale spreadsheet… it's probably time to level up.

  24. 73

    Ep. 76 - Code scanning: what is it, and do you need it?

    We're interrupting this red hot privacy enforcement news cycle to break down an ALL too buzzworthy topic du jour: "code scanning" It sounds comprehensive. It sounds deep, man. But does it actually give privacy leaders the full picture of what’s happening with your data? In the latest #PrivacyHuddle, Colleen Barry sits down with Ketch Co-founder and Head of Product Maxwell Anderson to unpack the buzz. At a glance: ◾ Code scanning is an interesting, but small part of data visibility ◾ The majority of critical data collection, such as on your website, doesn’t live in the code—it happens through third-party script configurations. ◾ To make sure you're getting a full sweep, ask your vendor, "How do you ensure you’re capturing all data collected by third-party SaaS tools?"

  25. 72

    Ep. 75 - Regulator priorities: notice, consent & opt outs

    Privacy enforcement is increasing, and regulators are getting more specific. Here’s what they’re focused on right now: 💡 Is your business giving consumers clear, obvious notice? This is the #1 complaint regulators receive from consumers–they can't figure out how to exercise their privacy rights. From banners, to policies, to preference centers: make your language clear and options accessible. 💡 As one CPPA regulator put it: "We've been enforcing CPPA for five years. We shouldn't be having to remind anyone that their opt-out mechanism is insufficient." And yet, opt-out compliance is a focus of every single CPPA investigation. 💡 From consent to opt-outs: if the consumer is known, regulators expect your business to remember their privacy choices across every system and browser. This includes compliance with GPC (Global Privacy Control). In this episode of the #PrivacyHuddle, Alysa Hutnik and Colleen Barry unpack the biggest takeaways from the California Lawyers Association 2025 Privacy Summit. What’s getting enforced, what’s getting overlooked, and what privacy professionals need to prioritize now.

    Ep. 72 - Unpacking the Texas AG action against AllState

    “This is the first enforcement action I’ve seen where the consumer pain is acutely real." "People’s insurance premiums are going up. Coverage is being denied. And they could have opted out.” In today’s Privacy Huddle, Alysa Hutnik and Jonathan Joseph break down the big enforcement news out of Texas: AG Paxton taking action against AllState and Arity for sharing driver location and behavior data with third parties. Watch this to understand the significance of this action and why it’s a warning sign of what’s to come. Brands, it’s time for you to get your privacy notices, policies, and data collection practices in order.

    Ep. 71 - What Makes a Data Broker, a Data Broker? (New CCPA Requirements)

    Did California pull a fast one on us? Because the expanded data broker definition was supposed to be live in April…and it’s live now. Alysa Hutnik and Jonathan Joseph are kicking off the Privacy Huddle in 2025 with an important, messy (it’s ok you two–it’s not your fault) discussion on how the CPPA is defining a data broker. Possible brand scenarios: You have very little first party data, and you purchase third party data to run an advertising campaign. Does that make you a data broker? You have plenty of first party data, and you purchase information about just one audience attribute to append to your data set for advertising. Does that make you a data broker? Being defined as a data broker has implications for customer perception of your brand AND increased scrutiny from regulators. This is a must watch for brand privacy and marketing leaders. 👀

  30. 67

    Ep. 70 - 2024 privacy review and 2025 predictions

    Before we turn the page to 2025, let’s break down the biggest topics in data privacy this year. In the latest Privacy Huddle, Alysa Hutnik and Colleen Barry dive into: 📍 State Laws: If 2024 felt like whack-a-mole, brace yourself—more laws, more enforcement, and Oregon's unique requirements are coming in hot. 📍 Data Broker Laws: Expect broader definitions and behavioral nudges for brands reconsidering their practices. 📍 Wiretapping Lawsuits: They’re not going away. Trackers, pixels, and consent mechanisms will remain front-and-center. 📍 Sensitive Data and Minors: COPPA was just the start. “What is a child?” now varies by state, and brands targeting teens need to think twice about consent. 📍 Social Media Data Collection: If your privacy policy still treats pixels and APIs as afterthoughts, it’s time to modernize. Ad practices are evolving and your disclosures need to keep up. 📍 Enforcement Trends: New states and sweeps headlines will set the tone for 2025. If you’re not focused on sensitive data, sales, and shares, start now.

    Ep. 69 - 2025 US State privacy laws - What to know

    We're approaching 2025, which means new U.S. privacy laws are around the corner. On this week's Privacy Huddle, Alysa and Jonathan are diving in ⬇️ 5 U.S. state privacy laws come into effect in January 2025: ✔️ Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act (DPDPA) ✔️ Iowa Consumer Data Protection Act (ICDPA) ✔️ Nebraska Data Privacy Act (NDPA) ✔️ New Hampshire Privacy Act (NHPA) ✔️ New Jersey Data Privacy Act (NJPA) Lots of housekeeping businesses should do to get compliance prep underway: 🚨 DSR portal requirements 🚨 GPC (Global Privacy Control) compliance 🚨 Privacy policy updates

  32. 65

    Ep. 68 - Clean room and privacy - What the FTC left out

    Clean rooms and privacy–what the FTC left out of their recent blog 👀 The FTC’s blog this month, "Data Clean Rooms: Separating Fact from Fiction," stirred the pot—but left a lot unsaid. In this episode of the hashtag#PrivacyHuddle, Alysa Hutnik and Jonathan Joseph dig into the current reality of privacy concerns and clean rooms. Three key takeaways: 1️⃣ It’s still early days. Clean rooms are a nascent category, and even regulators are figuring out how to approach them. Industry collaboration is ongoing, and not defined, to align on best practices and common standards. 2️⃣ Your clean room provider isn’t your lawyer. Providers won’t tell you if your use case is compliant. When shifting state laws come into play, it gets even more complicated. Rely on your counsel for guidance. 3️⃣ Clean rooms aren't a magic privacy fix. Privacy-preserving tools within clean rooms are helpful, but they don’t erase the need for thoughtful data governance. What goes in, happens inside, and comes out must all meet privacy obligations.

  33. 64

    Ep. 67 - CPPA Board meeting recap: data brokers and automated decision making

    Alysa Hutnik and Jonathan Joseph break down the latest CPPA board meeting hot topics: Automated decision-making, expanding the definition of data broker, and CPPA Executive Director Ashkan Soltani's resignation. ➡️ Automated decision-making. Headlines might infer it's a done deal, but CPPA board members are not aligned yet. We don't know what they key dates are, but it's reasonable to expect something in Q1-Q2 2025. ➡️ Expanding the definition of data broker. Businesses may need to file as a data broker by April 1st, well before The Delete Act comes into effect in January 2026. ➡️ CPPA Executive Director Ashkan Soltani announced his resignation, effective January 2025. As a key architect in California's privacy laws, his departure signals the endof an era. What's next?

  34. 63

    Ep. 66 - Republican leadership impact on data privacy - Post 2024 US Election

    The U.S. election is in the rearview mirror, and we're facing a Republican administration and congress. What data privacy changes might be ahead? In today's Privacy Huddle, Jonathan Joseph asks Alysa Hutnik what the new Republican administration means for privacy and data governance. As the balance of power shifts, here's what's on the horizon: ➡️ Changes in House committee leadership. New players will reshape the privacy conversation. Who’s going to take the reins? ➡️ AI regulation under Trump. What (if any) boundaries might emerge as the administration seeks to balance innovation with control? With Elon Musks's involvement, regulation may be light at best. ➡️ FTC shake-up. The end of the Lina Khan era is looming. What will the FTC focus on under new leadership? Alysa has predictions on surveillance capitalism and digital advertising.

  35. 62

    Ep. 65 - Will brands need to register as data brokers?

    🚨 Breaking: Does the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) think your brand is a "data broker?" Maybe. This Friday's CPPA meeting could rewrite the rules on what it means to be a "data broker." 😩 The quick summary: even if your brand has a first-party relationship with consumers, if you’re purchasing or appending data from third parties, you might now be considered a data broker under the new California definition. This possible change has major implications for brands: 1️⃣ Consider the California Delete Act, a one-click consumer request that mandates all data brokers to delete their information. If your brand has to register as a data broker, this law now will apply to you. 2️⃣ Having to register as a data broker comes with new implications for brand reputation and perception with consumers. So, what’s the impact? We don't know yet, but the CPPA’s move could mean significant changes to your privacy strategy and data practices. Stay tuned.
