Webinar from DeMarco Law, PLLC and Kemp IT Law
In their 2021 Annual Privacy Governance Report, IAPP and EY found that international data transfer (“IDT”) compliance was, by a wide margin, privacy professionals’ biggest concern, with 60% of respondents naming it their top issue.
In this webinar, IDT legal experts from the US and the UK will:
- explore how we got to where we are today and why things are in such a state of flux;
- review directions of travel:
- in the US: other US States are following California in adopting CCPA-like data privacy laws
- in the UK: the Government is eyeing up what a more liberal data regime could do for a post-Brexit economy
- in the EU: Brussels is positive about a new Privacy Shield but some EU capitals are taking Schrems II as a cue for a harder line
- around the world: 70% of countries have now passed data protection laws or have them in draft;
- offer practical tips on:
- navigating risks and avoiding pitfalls
- building a bridge towards business-like, robust IDT compliance
against a backdrop where the best can be the enemy of the good and complete compliance a mirage.
