Law Glossary
Consumer fraud is commonly defined as deceptive business practices that cause consumers to suffer financial or other losses. The victims believe they are participating in a legal and valid business transaction when they are actually being defrauded. Fraud against consumers is often related to false promises or inaccurate claims made to consumers, as well as practices that directly cheat consumers out of their money.

What Is Consumer Targeting Law?
The protection of consumers’ privacy online is addressed within the field of consumer targeting law. The Federal Trade Commission’s Behavioral Advertising Principles recommend that websites disclose data collection policies, which are used to create consumer-targeted advertising. The FTC also advises that websites allow consumers to opt out of data collection. The FTC Act can be used to charge companies that do not adhere to their stated consumer privacy policies, do not protect consumer data, or do not provide adequate notifications of privacy policy changes. The law does not require all companies to provide privacy policies, though financial firms must disclose their information-sharing policies to their customers.
