FPF (Future of Privacy Forum) brings together industry leaders, academics, consumer advocates, and other thought leaders to explore the challenges posed by technological innovation while developing privacy protections, ethical norms, and workable business practices. FPF helps fill the void in the “space not occupied by law,” which exists due to the speed of technological development. As “data optimists,” FPF believes that the power of data is a net social benefit that can be well-managed to control risks, while also offering the best protections and empowerment to consumers and individuals. CatchOn is an FPF corporate supporter and is involved with events throughout the year.
