Millions of us use mobile apps to help manage our physical and mental health and wellbeing. How well does existing law protect the private health data collected by these apps? In this episode, hosts Alicia Downey and Kelsey Paine talk to privacy and cybersecurity law expert David Turetsky about the issues posed by healthcare apps that collect sensitive data relating to a user's mental health, reproductive cycle, dietary habits, or fitness, to name only a few examples. Listen and catch up on U.S. federal and state enforcement challenges to app companies that engage in the unauthorized disclosure of personal health data, and how a changing legal landscape may be posing an increased threat to health data privacy rights.

With special guest:

David Turetsky, Professor of Practice, College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity, SUNY Albany
