How is IBM challenging California Privacy Law in court?

IP Litigation
Written By Klemchuk LLP

IBM is challenging the California Privacy Law statute with the filing of two motions for summary judgment claiming that:

  • disclosures had been properly made as required under the California law;

  • having disclosures made on a separate website as opposed to within the mobile application was legal;

  • the California statutes do not mandate where privacy disclosures regarding mobile applications have to be made; and

  • the city attorney’s office was unable to make a showing of any substantial injuries caused by the Weather Channel’s application’s actions.
