This series of three roundtables for peer group exchange will focus on managing the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance process. Regulators and policy makers will not be invited to these roundtables.
Whatever happens with Brexit, your organisation will continue to trade with some of the 30 countries in the European Economic Area and you need to ensure that your organisation is complying with the GDPR.
The emphasis will be on sharing experience to help you organise and manage the process rather than giving legal advice on the impact of the GDPR.*
The roundtables will be hosted by companies and take place in London in November 2016 and January and March 2017. Hosts will report on progress in their organisations. In addition, you should expect to discuss your plans with the group. Everyone learns and benefits from this participatory process.
The first roundtable will be hosted by Mark Keddie, Chief Privacy Officer, BT Group on 23 November at its office near St. Pauls in central London.
The second roundtable will be hosted by Ellis Parry, Global Lead – Data Privacy, BP Legal, BP Oil International Ltd on 19 January 2017 at its office in Canary Wharf, London
The third roundtable will be hosted by Google, London, in the second half of March 2017 in London. Offers to host in March, together with your proposed dates, should be e-mailed to [email protected]
Each group will be limited to 25 people to facilitate discussion in a relaxed atmosphere.
A summary will be prepared after each session by Privacy Laws & Business on a non-attributable basis for distribution to the group.

Data Mapping and Article 30 – How to Scale in Practice
Broadcast Date: March 23, 2017
Time: 11:00 a.m. – Noon ET, 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. GMT
The deadline to be in compliance with the GDPR is a little over a year away. Organizations seeking to have their houses in order next spring are busy implementing the necessary policies and controls to understand and manage their data flows. Article 30 of the new law spells out in detail that regulatory authorities can, at their discretion, request records of your organization’s personal data processing activities.
So how will you do this efficiently across the many business arms of your organization? How will you prioritize what data to map and track, and what doesn’t require this level of attention? Who should be involved in these data mapping and inventory activities?
Join us for this informational web conference and hear from data privacy experts the answers to these questions and more. Time will be allocated to field your anonymous questions.
What you’ll take away:
- How to prioritize, how much time to allocate, and what reports to generate
- Questionnaires vs. Intelligent Data Flow Scanning
- In-house vs. third party resources
- Keeping it evergreen and up to date
- Re-using existing IT tools
Speakers:
Kabir Barday, CIPP/US, CIPM, CIPT, CEO, OneTrust
Sabrina Houlton, Assistant General Counsel, Data Privacy & Security, United Technologies Corporation
Veronika Tonry, CIPP/E, CIPM, CIPT, FIP, President, Privacy Know How, LLC
Our March speaker is Justin Troutman, creator of PocketBlock. Ultimately, PocketBlock is about advancing security education and literacy, using cryptography as a driver.
PocketBlock is the first initiative in a cross-disciplined space he’s dubbed CRUX, or cryptography + user experience. PocketBlock’s interactive curricula aims to introduce the concepts behind modern cryptography, by scaling down, and sometimes completely stripping away, the mathematical complexities; instead, it relies heavily on visuals and “moves”, instead of formulaic calculations. Because of the malleability and scalability of this approach, it’s suitable for everyone from an 8-year-old grade schooler all the way to a tenured developer.
Cultivated through various workshops at Cal Poly SLO’s EPIC, Facebook’s Hacktober and Hacker Girls Summer Camp, and r00tz Asylum at Defcon, PocketBlock serves as a bridge between classical and modern cryptography; it’s an effective catalyst within STEAM initiatives for making cryptography accessible as a potential career path, and also encourages more meaningful dialogue between seasoned developers tasked with implementing strong cryptography, yet without prior knowledge.
During Privacy Lab, Justin will take us through a quick look at Pockenacci, an authenticated block cipher for introducing the concepts of key schedules, S-boxes, and P-boxes. He’ll also discuss current development of new ciphers, including a scaled down version of the Advanced Encryption Standard. Also in the works is a narrative-driven, episodic interactive Web adventure (e.g., think Zork in 2017) that involves making and breaking ciphers, PocketBlock style, in order to complete missions and level up.
BCLT Privacy Law Forum: Silicon ValleyMarch 24, 2017Palo Alto, CAThis full day conference brings together in-house counsel from leading tech companies, practicing lawyers, technologists, regulators, privacy advocates and academics.

The “big data” phenomenon holds forth the promise of unleashing great social advances. It also raises important challenges to privacy, fairness and social trust. This is giving rise to a new field of law and policy studies aimed at maximizing the social value of big data while minimizing its associated risks. The 2017 I/S symposium, “Predictive Analytics, Law, and Policy: Mapping the Terrain,” will bring leading scholars together to start laying out something of an intellectual roadmap for this emerging field. This will be the journal’s first annual symposium co-sponsored by the College of Law’s new Program on Data and Governance.

Machines are making a lot of decisions that used to be made by humans. Machines now help us make individual decisions, such as which news we read and the ads we see. They also make societal decisions, such as which neighborhoods get a heavier police presence and which receive more attention from political candidates. Journalist Julia Angwin talks about the challenges of holding machines accountable for their decisions. Read https://www.propublica.org/series/machine-bias
Speaker: Julia Angwin is a senior reporter at ProPublica. From 2000 to 2013, she was a reporter at The Wall Street Journal, where she led a privacy investigative team that was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize in Explanatory Reporting in 2011 and won a Gerald Loeb Award in 2010. Her book “Dragnet Nation: A Quest for Privacy, Security and Freedom in a World of Relentless Surveillance,” was published by Times Books in 2014, and was shortlisted for Best Business Book of the Year by the Financial Times. Also in 2014, Julia was named reporter of the year by the Newswomen’s Club of New York. In 2003, she was on a team of reporters at The Wall Street Journal that was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in Explanatory Reporting for coverage of corporate corruption. She is also the author of “Stealing MySpace: The Battle to Control the Most Popular Website in America” (Random House, March 2009). She earned a B.A. in mathematics from the University of Chicago and an MBA from the Graduate School of Business at Columbia University.
As the world shrinks and digital takes control, effective advertising lawyers are not just building the bridge between creative freedom and consumer protection, they have increasingly become embedded in the marketing process, from beginning to end. Lawyers are now partners to CMOs, brand managers, and creative directors. That’s not an easy position. However, armed with the right knowledge, today’s marketing lawyer is a valued member of the team. This conference, now in its 13th year, will show senior practitioners and C-suite executives how to join hands to facilitate the creation of effective, successful marketing campaigns using all available tools.
Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credit will be offered.
The hashtag for this event is #ANAAdLaw.
