SmartPrivacy is a practitioner-focused, half day local workshop where privacy professionals can learn from each other about tools and best practices to operationalize their privacy programs.

The workshop is hosted by OneTrust, however, is open to any privacy professional regardless of tool or template of choice.

A combination or structured educational sessions, peer-lead discussions, and networking allow organizations to share practical tips on topics such as GDPR compliance, how to perform a data inventory, identifying the key stakeholders/privacy champions within your organization, and how to get buy-in from executives.

Attendees can expect to receive 4.5 CPE credit hours, the ultimate PIA/DPIA, Data Inventory & Mapping, and Data Subject Rights Handbooks, access to free software tools, how-to guides, and best practices documents on the topics covered.

Nowadays, all countries seem to be seeking one pressing issue and that is heritage maintenance, especially in Architecture and Urban design. Organizations and Universities play a vital role in saving or rather conserving old cities through Conferences. Therefore, a conference on “Cities’ Identity Through Architecture & Arts” will be held in 2018. In this conference, examples, and tendencies dealing with urban identities as well as the transformation of cities that shape the current art scene in different places of the world will be discussed. This type of architectural art continuously renews itself -from new materials to different means of communication, from new approaches to perceptional paradigms and nature in the millennium, from new subjects to manifestations. Contemporary art continues to be produced in various directions, consumed and put forward into ideas. This conference will present how citizens see their cities and how they physically or mentally compare it with the ideal city in their own perceptions. However, a city’s identity presents distinguishing factors that make it unique and unlike any other. IEREK aims to dedicate the investigation of the different and new approaches developed in Architecture and Contemporary arts. IEREK aims to focus on the basis of urban life and identities as well as investigate the different approaches developed in Architecture and Contemporary arts.

AFDIT is pleased to announce that its next conference will be held on Friday, December 1, 2017 from 9am to 6pm with a focus on: GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR): IMPLEMENTATION AND ECONOMIC IMPACT.Our program brings together representatives of the French National privacy authority, the French Council of State, the French Department of justice, the Council of Europe, Columbia University (NY – NY) and various large public and private structures. More a key figure in what concerns personal data: Max SCHREMS (student Austrian who did condemn Facebook and dropped the Safe Harbor in 2015). There will be the presentation of a study that is being conducted by ALTARES early afternoon.The conference will take place at the Maison de l’Avocat, Albert Haddad room, 51 rue Grignan, 13006 Marseille, France. The event will be preceded by a free showing of the movie Nothing to Hide on the day before (November 30) at 6:30pm in the same Albert Haddad room. Registration is mandatory and can only be made online via helloasso.com before November 29, 2017.

The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the Department of Education (“ED”) will host a workshop on December 1, 2017 to examine student privacy and Ed Tech.

The use of “Ed Tech” has exploded over the past several years. More than half of K-12 students have access to a school-issued personal computing device, and in many school districts, online curriculum is becoming the norm. While these technologies have tremendous potential, this transformation in Ed Tech has raised questions about how the Rule implementing the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA Rule”) applies in the school context, and how it intersects with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”). The workshop is intended to gather information to help clarify how the FTC and ED can ensure that student privacy is properly protected without interfering with the promise of Ed Tech.

To aid our analysis of these issues, the FTC and ED seek input. Topics of interest include the following:

• Are the joint requirements of FERPA and COPPA sufficiently understood when Ed Tech providers collect personal information from students?
• Under what circumstances is it appropriate for a school to provide consent under COPPA and what is the process for properly obtaining the consent?
• How should requirements concerning notice, deletion, and retention of records be handled and by whom and when?
• COPPA and FERPA both limit the use of personal information collected from students by Ed Tech vendors. What are the appropriate limits on the use of this data?
• How do schools maintain “direct control” over Ed Tech providers when they rely on the School Official Exception to FERPA’s general consent requirement?

You can find a full list of questions and information about how to submit comments in the detailed public notice about the workshop. The deadline for submitting comments is November 17, 2017.

The workshop, which is free and open to the public, will be at the Constitution Center, 400 7th St., SW, Washington, DC. It will be webcast live on the FTC’s website. An agenda, directions to the Constitution Center building, and a list of speakers will be available in the near future on this event webpage.

V. INTERDISCIPLINARY WORKSHOP: PRIVACY, DATA PROTECTION & SURVEILLANCE
HIIG | French st. 9 | 10117 Berlin
5 December 2017 | 12 am – 6 pm

With the fifth workshop we want to offer young scientists the opportunity to present and discuss current research work in the very broad and diverse research field Privacy, Surveillance and Data Protection in an interdisciplinary round. We look forward to essay projects and dissertation projects, theoretical and empirical work, analyzes as well as solutions – and it may explicitly be work in progress. In addition to discussing open research questions, the workshop will focus on critical reflection on the premises of one’s own research, one’s own theory school (s) and one’s own discipline (s).

In particular, we are looking forward to grappling with the consequences of research published in the end of 2016 by Deirdre Mulligan, Colin Koopman and Nick Doty on the topic “Privacy is an essential contested concept: a multi-dimensional analytic for mapping privacy” What follows is the conclusion that privacy – and the same certainly applies to surveillance and data protection – is a fundamentally controversial concept, for research on theories, for individual and collective use, for societal negotiation but also for regulation and interpretation of laws? And what does privacy and privacy by design mean against this background?

When Columbus beat out 77 other cities to win a $50 million grant in the Smart Cities Challenge, it spawned a community conversation about the future of mobility. Suddenly, terms such as “smart mobility,” “connected electric automated vehicles” and “truck platooning” became a part of the community lexicon. Recent studies predict that 71 million autonomous cars will be sold by 2035, with 75% of vehicles being autonomous by 2040. Are automated vehicles our future? And what does it mean to “reinvent mobility”? Along with Smart Columbus and the Columbus Partnership, we have assembled a distinguished group of speakers to address the regulatory and infrastructure challenges we face as we embrace the opportunities presented by the Smart Cities Grant and technology advancements in mobility. Our panel of speakers will be led by former US Secretary of Transportation Rodney E. Slater, who will make introductory remarks on the future of transportation and mobility. We have assembled two panels – focused on the regulatory and infrastructure challenges and opportunities of autonomous vehicles – featuring speakers from the Ohio Department of Transportation, OSU Center for Automotive Research and American Electric Power. Please join us for this engaging and inspiring discussion on the future of our community and our way of life. Panelists include: Rodney E. Slater, former US Secretary of Transportation, and Partner, Squire Patton Boggs Mark Patton, Vice President, Smart Columbus Jordan Davis, Director, Smart Columbus James Barna, Chief Engineer and Assistant Director, Transportation Policy, State of Ohio Giorgio Rizzoni, OSU Director for Center for Automotive Research
