Are You Ready To Counsel On Data Privacy?
Wednesday November 28th, 2018 @ 09:00 AM - 10:30 AM
Information is power! But when referred to personal data one should add “when able to use it legally”. The rules of the game regarding collection, transmission, processing, warehousing and use of personal data are growing more complex and in a greater scope. In May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) entered into force for the European Union; this regulation is revolutionizing personal data matters worldwide and, as each countries’ domestic laws, it has the objective of providing individuals with more control over their data, introducing new processing, controlling, and transparency and compliance requirements. Upon evolving regulatory and practical data privacy matters, qualified counseling is an asset. Legal aspects such as use of cookies in websites, processing contracts, trans-border transmission and formats to document informed consent are, along with other various plots, the subject of consultation. Our panelists will present on relevant and current points of interest on this matter and will refer to the scope of legal services sought by companies with regards to data privacy.
