Example #8: NOT an endorsement: consumer regularly purchases brand of dog food/ decides to purchase a new, more expensive brand by same manufacturer/ in her personal blog she says her dog s fur is noticeably shinier and that in her opinion, new version is worth the money. Endorsement: consumer joins a network marketing program under which she periodically receives various products about which she can write reviews if she wants to. If she receives a free bag of the new dog food through this program, her positive review would be considered an endorsement. Material Connection Rule: Disclosure of material connection klgates.com 15

20 Examples of Other Relevant FTC Rules (in addition to rules for the ad itself) UDAP foundation (UDAAP if CFPB) Behavioral Advertising Principles (+ Trade Org rules, such as DAA re OBA + MSD + Mobile) + cross device rules Big Data (e.g., social media data use in credit scoring!)

25 Social Network Technologies In Re Nickelodeon Consumer Privacy Li7ga7on (3 rd Cir. ) : lower court found Viacom s pass (form Nick.com etc.) of IP Address etc. to Google ad service was not VPPA PII. On appeal now. EPIC s amicus brief: The court appears to be unaware that Google roucnely tracks users accvices based on their IP address. The court found [ that nothing indicates Google can idencfy individual PlainCffs]. The court likens this quescon to whether the provider has disclosed a unique idencfier and a correlated look- up table.... But the court fails to recognize that Google is the look- up table. Google s encre business model is premised on delivering targeted ads to users based on their browsing history, and this is only possible by iden&fying and tracking their online browsing habits. It is nonsensical to say that Google is unable to idencfy a user based on a combinacon of IP address, MAC address, and other browser cookie data; that is precisely what Google does best. Examples of tech rules (relevancy depends on actual facts) hsps://developers.google.com/+/web/busons- policy#policies klgates.com 25
26 Summary Re Social Developer Rules: Review them per accvity + Consider tech consequences klgates.com 26
27 Dealing with Ad Agency Contracts
28 Using Social Media To Advertise Goal of online marketing Drive consumers to advertiser s site. Consummate transactions. To attain this goal using social media, advertisers typically Publish directly on a social media site. Engage a party to publish advertising campaigns across the internet, including on social media sites. klgates.com 28
29 Engaging An Advertising Agency Determining Appropriate Party to Run Your Ad Campaign Regulator Scrutiny. Online searches of FTC and state regulator activity; both have taken active role in policing online advertising, paying substantial attention to advertising agencies and advertising and affiliate networks. Sample Ad Campaigns. Many ad networks and agencies run same types of campaigns for various clients i.e., use same media and same downstream affiliates to publish advertisements. klgates.com 29
30 Engaging An Advertising Agency (Cont d) Negotiating the Contract Defining the types of social media used Representations and warranties Indemnities heavily negotiated Creating the content klgates.com 30
31 Engaging An Advertising Agency (Cont d) Risk of lawsuit No matter what a contract says, risk of lawsuit. Review content Should consider a number of legal theories. klgates.com 31
32 General Content Review False Advertising nature, performance Trademark infringement, dilution, fair use Copyright photographs, literature Rights of Publicity name, likeness, image Defamation/Privacy false statements klgates.com 32
33 Concerns with Publishing User-Generated Content
34 User-Generated Content (UGC): General Advertisers increasingly running campaigns dependent upon UGC. TENSION On the one hand, using consumer-generated commentary for advertising creates a great risk that intellectual property will be infringed, brands will be disparaged, and individuals will be defamed. On the other hand, there is an almost unexceptional policy to encourage speech on the internet, without requiring internet service providers and web operators to constantly monitor third-party activity out of fear of potential liability. klgates.com 34
35 Copyright: Safe Harbor Of The DMCA Policy Concern If ISPs were responsible for copyright infringement caused by consumer discourse, ISPs would not encourage or even allow that speech. Solution.the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) If ISPs implement a mechanism for handling allegations of infringement on their website, they can take advantage of the safe harbor from monetary liability. Among other things: Written policy Registered agent Notice handled pursuant to strict rules Take down effected promptly where notice complies klgates.com 35
36 Trademark No statutory safe harbor No statutory safe harbor for owner/operator of a website hosting content infringing a trademark. Therefore, ISP that hosts UGC infringing another s trademark should create its own policy. Examples Contest: User posts video for advertiser s brand and includes picture of famous third-party s brand in a manner suggesting endorsement. Best practices Have user terms address potential trademark infringement. Consider risk of monitoring for trademark infringement. Respond to complaints. klgates.com 36
37 Right Of Publicity, Defamation, Privacy Communications Decency Act ( CDA ) No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider. 47 U.S.C. 230(c)(1). Does not apply to Federal intellectual property laws. State intellectual property laws? Right of publicity? Liability Generally, owner/operator of website not liable for state law claims arising out of UGC. Exceptions: Where owner/operator takes a fairly active role in contributing to the content of particular posts; federal intellectual property laws; maybe state intellectual property laws. klgates.com 37
38 Right of Publicity, Defamation, Privacy (Cont'd) Examples Batzel v. Smith, 333 F.3d 1018 (9th Cir. 2003) Moving and Storage, Inc. v. Panayotov et al., U.S.D.C. (D.Mass.) Case No Jones v. Dirty World Entertainment Recordings, LLC, 840 F. Supp. 2d 1008 (E.D. Kent. 2012); reversed, 755 F.3d 398 (6th Cir. 2014) klgates.com 38
