In 2005, Fordham Law founded CLIP, the Center on Law and Information Policy, in response to these regulatory challenges. CLIP is now on the cutting edge of scholarship and legal education in the emerging field of information law.

The Center supports and conducts research, organizes workshops and confer-ences, and hosts and facilitates high-level public discourse on topics such as data privacy and security, peer-to-peer technologies and intellectual property protection of information assets, and the liability of Internet intermediaries.

CLIP’s work is disseminated widely, helping to influence the guiding principles of our knowledge-driven society and find solutions to legal issues posed by information technologies.

On the following pages, you’ll learn more about CLIP and its contributions over the past five years.

CLIP was founded to make significant contributions to the development of law and policy for the information economy and to teach the next generation of leaders. CLIP brings together scholars, the bar, the business community, technology experts, the policy community, students, and the public to address and assess policies and solutions for cutting-edge issues that affect the evolution of the information economy.

In pursuing this mission, CLIP pursues work in five related areas:

■■ Law and policy relating to the regulation of information and public values

■■ Law and policy for innovation and knowledge creation■■ Technology, privacy, and security ■■ Technology and governance■■ The protection of intellectual property and information assets

Joel R. Reidenberg is the Founding Academic Director of the Center on Law and Information Policy and the Stanley D. Waxberg and Nikki Waxberg Chair at Fordham Law School. Reidenberg’s published books and articles explore both information privacy and information technology law and policy. He currently teaches courses in Information Privacy Law, Intellectual Property Law, and Internet Law. He has served as an expert adviser to the U.S. Congress, the Federal Trade Commission, and the European Commission on data privacy matters. He also has chaired the Section on Defamation and Privacy of the Association of American Law Schools and is a former chair of the Association’s Section on Law and Computers. Reidenberg received an A.B. degree from Dartmouth College, a J.D. from Columbia University, and both a D.E.A. droit international économique and a Ph.D. in law from the Université de Paris–Sorbonne. He is admitted to the Bars of New York and the District of Columbia.

Jamela Debelak is the Executive Director of the Center on Law and Information Policy. She also serves as an adjunct faculty member, teaching courses on Internet Law and the Law of Internet Speech. Prior to joining CLIP, Debelak was an associate in the IP Transactional Group at Dechert LLP. At Dechert, she worked with technology, media, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing companies in licensing, development, and acquisition matters involving intellectual property. She also previously worked as a law clerk at Rykodisc, Inc., which was, at the time, a stand-alone recording, publishing, and distribu-tion company. She earned her B.A., summa cum laude, from The Ohio State University and is a magna cum laude J.D. graduate of Temple Law School.

This conference explored the legal and policy dimensions of the Internet’s dual impact.

INTERNATIONAL DATA PROTECTION AND BINDING CORPORATE RULESCLIP hosted a two-day workshop on November 13-14, 2006, on international data protection and binding corpo-rate rules. The workshop explored the use of Binding Corporate Rules as a solution for the adequate protection of personal information under European Directive 95/46/EC. The workshop brought together a select group of industry leaders, technologists, academic and policy leaders, and government regulatory officials to engage in a constructive dialogue in order to clarify uncertainty surrounding the use of Binding Corporate Rules.

PRIVACY AND TRUST IN ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONSIn January 2007, CLIP was awarded a European Commission research grant, as part of an international consortium of research institutes, to perform a comparative study of “Privacy and Trust in Electronic Communications.” The study was submitted to the European Commission in July of that same year. CLIP Director Joel R. Reidenberg and student Project Fellows Camilla M. Abder ’08, Cedric Burton LL.M. ’07, Lisa C. Cooms ’08, and Ezra W. Kover ’08 were named as co-authors of the report.

BLOGGERS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTYIn September 2009, a team of student research fellows began a project to review intellectual property claims asserted against bloggers. From this review, we hope to identify the types of activities and fact patterns that typically raise legal concerns and result in legal action. This is the first project CLIP is undertaking in support of a long-term research goal aimed at identifying IP best practices for bloggers.

“The Center for Law and Information Policy plays a vital function in developing policy regarding

the protection of personal information in this electronic age. The ‘hackers’ are winning, and

secure walls need to be built to prevent these predatory cyberspace moles from gaining

access to an individual’s personal data. CLIP is in the forefront of this battle, developing legal

constraints to stop this nefarious activity and thus preserve the security of our data for the

benefit of the individual as well as society as a whole.”

CHILDREN’S EDUCATIONAL RECORDS AND PRIVACYIn spring 2008, CLIP launched a state-by-state study of children’s educational records and privacay. In October 2009, CLIP released the study and reported on the results of a survey of all 50 states finding that state edu-cational databases across the country ignore key privacy protections for the nation’s K-12 children. The study provided recommendations for best practices and legislative reform to address these privacy problems.

S T U D Y I M P A C T

■■ Congressional hearings before the House Committee on Education and Labor focused on the CLIP study in April 2010

■■ The Inspector General of the Social Security Administration relied on the CLIP study in his July 2010 audit report

■■ Media coverage included The Washington Post, Education Week, the Center for Democracy and Technology Blog, and U.S. PIRG

■■ Policymakers requested briefings, including:

■■ Assistant Secretary of Education Carmel Martin and her senior staff

■■ Staff of both the Senate and House education committees

■■ The National Conference of State Legislatures

■■ The Privacy Coalition (a coalition of organiza-tions dedicated to protecting privacy)

■■ The Data Quality Campaign

■■ The American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers

■■ The Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities

■■ The National Association of Attorneys General President-Elect and Washington State Attorney General Rob McKenna put the CLIP study on the recommended reading list for the organization’s members

CLIP Director Joel R. Reidenberg (far right) testified before Congress about the privacy of children’s educational records on April 14, 2010, during a hear-ing on “How Data Can be Used to Inform Educational Outcomes.” Congress-man John Kline introduced Reidenberg as a professor “who’s been at the forefront in examining the privacy implications of longitudinal data systems.” Rep. Kline added, “No conversation about educational data systems would be complete without a discussion of student privacy. Research indicates not nearly enough is being done to safeguard our students’ records.” Congress-man George Miller, Chairman of the Education and Labor Committee, later said, “Mr. Reidenberg, absolutely you raise issues that every member on this committee shares and is passionate about … you are right, we want to know how [the data] is being used and for what purposes.”

In 2010, CLIP formed a Board of Advisors to help guide the Center’s future development and assist in programmatic planning to keep the Center’s work relevant and on the cutting edge. Board members help develop ideas for confer-ences, research projects, and other center events and activities. The inaugural Board of Advisors comprises leaders with expertise in information law who come from law firms, companies, non-profit organizations, and the judiciary.

“As a project fellow, I helped organize a conference attended by privacy officers from several Fortune 500 companies, scholars, and members of the legal community from North America and Europe; attended roundtable discussions; and conducted research for a paper that was recently presented to the House Committee on Education and Labor. These experiences helped me understand the far-reaching ramifications that information technology and privacy concerns have in our ever-connected world and the growing role

CLIP plays in fostering conversations among a variety of sectors.”
