Introduction
Chanel Powell focuses her practice on data privacy and cybersecurity law and advises clients on how to best protect sensitive data and navigate cybersecurity matters.
My focus
I help clients safeguard their information and data. Through closely monitoring the dynamic development of data privacy laws on the state, federal, and international levels, I create proactive privacy policies, practical terms of use policies, and privacy response strategies for clients. I also assist clients who have experienced data breaches to understand their reporting requirements and draft correspondence to the appropriate state entities.
Looking ahead
I am focused on understanding the ethical and privacy implications of artificial intelligence and the ways this technology can be used as a tool in our everyday lives. I believe being proactive rather than reactive is the key to cyber safety.
