International Data Transfers From Europe To The US – How To Avoid Privacy Protection Pitfalls.

International Data Transfers From Europe To The US – How To Avoid Privacy Protection Pitfalls.

CPE
Wednesday, 31st March 202111.00AM (EST)/ 4.00PM (GMT)

The European Court of Justice decision that invalidated the EU-US Privacy Shield, complicates EU-US data transfers. International Data Transfers from the European Economic Area (EEA) today require:

(i) design and implementation of agile, principle-based organizational and technical measures,
(ii) a solid risk assessment framework that is operationalized,
(iii) someone responsible to track and quickly communicate current events, and
(iv) a great Plan B

With many of our clients conducting business in the European Economic Area (EEA), as well as the rest of the world, this is an issue that will impact you and your business. Successfully operationalising safeguards to address legal issues associated with international data transfers can be accomplished. In the latest Data Protection Academy webinar, Privacy Engine will discuss how US-based organizations should respond and our recommendations in the form of a simplified “how to” guide.
