Our firm is led by Lydia F. de la Torre, a dual-qualified US/EU attorney and widely recognized authority in privacy, data protection, and cybersecurity law. Her career includes significant experience advising organizations, shaping policy, and contributing to global discussions on responsible data use. In addition to her work in private practice and academia, Lydia served as a founding Board Member of the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA), giving her unique firsthand insight into the development and application of the nation’s leading state privacy framework—perspective she brings directly to her work with clients.
Lydia’s leadership is further rooted in her long-standing commitment to the ethical and human-centered development of technology. As highlighted in the California Lawyers Association’s Spotlight on Professor Lydia de la Torre, she has been described as “one of California’s most influential privacy lawyers,” known for championing transparency and thoughtful regulation in emerging technologies. Her view that privacy carries “a deep ethical dimension” and that AI frameworks must protect individuals continues to inform Golden Data Law’s values and approach.
Why do we use the honeybee as our symbol?
We use the honeybee as our symbol because, much the same as our attorneys and staff, honeybees are industrious, social, brilliant at building new structures, and, most importantly, capable of creating value for themselves while simultaneously being immensely helpful to others.
