NEW YORK, Sept. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Practising Law Institute (PLI) announces the release of Privacy Law Answer Book, a Q&A guide to the laws and regulations that govern how companies collect, use, and store consumers' personal information.

The Privacy Law Answer Book is a go-to reference for those attorneys and business leaders who are asking these questions:

What kind of personal information do we collect about our consumers?
How do we notify them of what we collect?
In what ways are we permitted to use that information?

Edited by Jeremy Feigelson of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, the Answer Book guides readers through the patchwork of federal, state, and international laws and regulations. The book allows readers to not only keep pace with the latest developments in privacy, but to stay one step ahead of the data privacy challenges of tomorrow.

The Q&A guide aims to address the needs of privacy attorneys, attorneys who may not specialize in the area but are dealing with the related issues, and business leaders who are encountering privacy-related issues in their everyday business affairs.

The Privacy Law Answer Book addresses:

Online privacy policies
The Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act (COPPA)
Mobile device privacy
Financial privacy
Medical privacy
Workplace privacy
Online behavioral advertising and tracking, and
Privacy enforcement and litigation

The book concludes with a survey of global privacy issues.
