Professor Elvy, Computer Science Professors Partner in Privacy Regulations Project

With new internet privacy regulations demanding compliance from data systems, computer science researchers from UC Davis and UC Irvine have partnered with UC Davis School of Law Professor Stacy-Ann Elvy to translate the regulations into technical language. The next step to protecting people's privacy is to build a system that ensures existing systems can comply.

Stacy-Ann Elvy is a professor of law and Martin Luther King Jr. Hall Research Scholar at UC Davis School of Law. Her research focuses on “the commercial law of privacy” and its relationship to emerging technology. Professor Elvy’s forthcoming book, The Cambridge Handbook on Emerging Issues at the Intersection of Commercial Law and Technology (co-edited with Nancy Kim) (Cambridge University Press, 2024), explores several of the most recent and significant issues at the intersection of technology and commercial law. Her book A Commercial Law of Privacy and Security for the Internet of Things (Cambridge University Press, 2021) focuses on the consumer and legal implications of the Internet of Things. Several of her articles have been identified and peer reviewed by distinguished legal scholars as some of the best scholarship relating to commercial law and privacy law. Professor Elvy's scholarship has been published or is forthcoming in leading legal journals, including the Iowa Law Review, Boston University Law Review, Harvard Journal of Law & Technology, Berkeley Journal of Law & Technology, University of Pennsylvania Journal of International Law, and the Columbia Law Review.
