Employment Traps in the Digital Age: Trade Secret (Including Restrictive Covenant) and Privacy Issues Abound

Trade secrets and personal information are key assets for most employers. Join us for a webinar to discuss recent developments affecting the protection of trade secrets in California (including restrictive covenants) and the handling of personal information.

Topics will include:

• How do recent Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) developments, including the applicability of the DTSA to misappropriation before its enactment date and immunity for whistleblowers, affect employers?
• Are employee non-solicitation agreements still enforceable in California after AMN and Barker?
• What does the newly enacted California Labor Section 925 mean for employee mobility?
• How does the expansion of data protection laws, from the EU General Data Protection Regulation to the California Consumer Privacy Act, affect employers?
