Smart Cars & Privacy Violations Investigations

Lieff Cabraser’s nationally-recognized cybersecurity and data privacy team is actively investigating the growing problem of auto manufacturers improperly gathering, disclosing, and monetizing data about car owners, drivers, and passengers – including driving behavior — in violation of U.S. privacy laws. Numerous stories have appeared across the media, including in the New York Times, CNBC, the Associated Press, and NPR, highlighting not only the potential dangers of such improper data sharing and usage, but actual current instances where manufacturers like General Motors, Subaru, Kia and Mitsubishi have improperly used and/or handed over private personal data to outside companies.

If you have believe you have experienced improper sharing or disclosure of your vehicle data, or are concerned it is likely to happen, please contact a cybersecurity lawyer at Lieff Cabraser today about your potential case and recovery.
