Experience
Maya Rodriguez focuses on the operational and commercial litigation aspects of E-commerce and digital marketplaces. She is a specialist in platform liability, algorithmic pricing disputes, and international data privacy compliance (GDPR/CCPA). Maya often acts as outside general counsel for mid-market e-commerce platforms.
Representative Matters:
Algorithmic Price-Fixing Defense: Represented a major e-commerce aggregator in a federal antitrust investigation alleging that its dynamic pricing algorithms facilitated tacit collusion among third-party sellers. Successfully proved the independence of the algorithmic inputs.
Platform Liability Litigation: Won a key appellate victory for a digital marketplace client, establishing that Section 230 of the CDA shielded the platform from liability regarding counterfeit goods sold by third-party vendors.
Global Privacy Audit: Led a comprehensive privacy and data security audit for a multinational retail brand, restructuring their data flow between US and EU servers to satisfy the "Schrems II" compliance requirements.
