Please join SFIPLA and speakers, Justin Pierce and Kimberly Culp, for a presentation regarding the impact of recent decisions on digital scraping in the Northern District and Ninth Circuit.
The Ninth Circuit and courts in the Northern District of California have recently decided a number of cases related to digital “scraping” (a method used to collection information available on the internet that is intended to simulate human web surfing but is typically achieved by use of software programs). This presentation will look at the statutes that protect companies whose valuable data is being scraped and will discuss the recent key cases interpreting those statutes. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of the applicable law addressing data scraping and practical steps that companies can take to position themselves for success in litigation against a digital scraper.
