The U.S. Chamber of Commerce last week gathered a diverse,
bipartisan group of policymakers, regulators, industry
representatives and thought leaders to discuss all things data
privacy at #DataDoneRight, its 2019 privacy summit. Topics included
the California Consumer Privacy Act, the possibility of federal
privacy legislation and working with privacy regulators, and the
summit featured a fireside chat with Georgia Attorney General Chris
Carr. In addition to talking about privacy issues at the state
level, AG Carr touched on a variety of other subjects, including
how to work effectively with AGs.
On the privacy front, AG Carr emphasized how important it is for
business and industry to have a seat at the table when legislation
and regulations are being created. He discussed his office's
outreach to the business community and his approach to training and
education of the business community on data privacy laws and best
practices. He praised the "carrot" approach
