We’ve seen many articles discussing the FTC’s new “Click to Cancel” Negative Option Rule and California’s updated Autorenewal Law. But very few have addressed the elephant in the room: the updated FTC Rule and California law have potentially business-ending implications for any company selling products on an autorenewal, continuous service, or negative option basis. Both impose many additional new requirements concerning consent and cancellation and require certain disclosures surrounding both the autorenewal program and the underlying transaction itself. Join Venable’s Autorenewal Solutions Team (VAST) on December 3 at 2:00 p.m. ET as they discuss these and other changes to the FTC Rule and California law that have gone unaddressed recently.
