Bio

Nancy Kang advises companies from early-stage startups to global platforms on privacy, data governance, and artificial intelligence matters in the U.S., Europe, and other key jurisdictions worldwide. She counsels on AI and machine learning products, automated decision-making, mobile apps, connected devices, online advertising and marketing, and tracking technologies.

Nancy regularly partners with product, engineering, marketing, and security teams to launch new products and services. She has reviewed hundreds of products and privacy impact assessments. Her AI work includes generative AI, chatbots, personalization, model training, and automated decision-making use cases. She helps clients translate evolving requirements into practical launch reviews, governance frameworks, user disclosures, risk assessments, human review and escalation processes, and scalable internal guidance. She also advises on responsible enterprise adoption of generative AI and AI-related transactions, including internal use policies, contractual data use rights, and acquisition diligence.

Nancy also defends clients in inquiries and enforcement actions by data protection and consumer protection regulators, including state attorneys general and the FTC. Her recent matters range from drafting responses to regulatory demands and overseeing privacy notice and consumer rights remediation to structuring settlement terms and guiding clients through ongoing order obligations.

Her transactional work includes negotiating data processing and data sharing terms; advising on contractual rights to use data for analytics, product improvement, and machine learning; conducting privacy and AI diligence in acquisitions; and supporting vendor diligence and cross-border data transfers.

Before joining ZwillGen, Nancy led privacy counseling at Uber for digital advertising, payments, freight, and IT engineering teams, and directed GDPR and CCPA compliance for the Western subsidiaries of a multinational video game publisher. Earlier in her career, she served as senior privacy counsel to a global cloud data platform and spent five years in South Korea helping a Fortune Global 500 entertainment company expand immersive cinema technology to more than 70 countries.

A former entrepreneur and policy analyst for the Mayor of Los Angeles, Nancy brings both business pragmatism and public sector perspective to her advice. Clients value her ability to translate dense regulations into concise, actionable guidance for non‑lawyers.
