Event Description

The Workshop on Consumer Injuries and Benefits in the Data-Driven Economy will bring together economists, academics, and other experts to examine how the agency can better understand and measure consumer injuries and benefits that may result from the collection, use, or disclosure of consumer data. Topics will include: quantifying informational injuries and the potential benefits of consumer data collection and use; the impacts of data breaches on consumers and efforts to minimize injuries; the costs and benefits of behavioral and contextual advertising; and measuring consumers’ privacy preferences, beliefs, and decisions.
