If you operate a mobile app or any other online platform that features consumer reviews, there are important rules you need to know when it comes to procuring, organizing, or editing consumer reviews of your products or services.
The risks are real. Any actions you take that have the effect of distorting or misrepresenting consumer reviews may give rise to allegations of potentially deceptive conduct and enforcement actions by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) under Section 5 of the FTC Act.
As a matter of general guidelines, a few key principles emerge from Section 5 of the FTC Act. Namely, companies (1) should be transparent about their review-related practices and (2) should treat consumer reviews in a way that truly reflects the feedback received from legitimate customers, presenting a true and holistic picture of the consumers’ experiences and interactions with the companies’ goods or services.
While these guiding principles may seem straightforward enough, many companies have engaged in practices that are, in fact, illegal. It’s important to know that, if adopted, these practices can give rise to significant liabilities. This brief article is intended to highlight, and help you avoid, some common pitfalls.

The Office of Civil Rights (“OCR”) recently issued bulletins with important guidance for health care providers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The OCR has recognized that, during the COVID-19 national emergency, health care providers may seek to communicate with patients, and provide so-called “telehealth” services, through remote communications technologies. Some of these technologies, and the manner in which they are used by HIPAA-covered healthcare providers, may not fully comply with the requirements of the HIPAA Rules. However, in light of the national emergency, the OCR said that it will not impose penalties against covered health care providers for the lack of a HIPAA business associate agreement (“BAA”) with video communication vendors, or any other noncompliance with the HIPAA Rules that relates to the good faith provision of telehealth services during the COVID-19 nationwide public health crisis.

Data privacy laws in much of the world apply regardless of industry, source or region. In contrast, the US features an alphabet soup of sector-specific federal data privacy laws. For example, the German-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) applies to financial institutions, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) applies to healthcare institutions, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) applies to online businesses collecting information from children under age 13, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA) apply to student records, the Driver Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) applies to motor vehicle records, and the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) applies to data collected by consumer reporting agencies. Stir in 50 US state and territorial data security laws governing data breach notice, security and destruction, and you get a complex thicket of data privacy and security laws.
