As information privacy attorneys, we frequently hear certain questions from law students and lawyers with an interest in joining our field: What are the sources of privacy law? What does a privacy lawyer do? How do I start? Should I study administrative law? What about international law? And, most importantly, how do I get a job in privacy?
Lawyers who specialize in information privacy enjoy a surprisingly diverse set of career paths. Though many work in law firms, others deploy their expertise within companies, nonprofits, consulting agencies, advocacy groups, and all levels of government. Privacy lawyers ensure compliance with laws and regulations while also enforcing best practices based on broad cultural norms. They tackle policy questions that affect the day-to-day lives of anyone who uses an internet-connected device. And, increasingly, their work has a direct impact on an enormous swathe of the global economy.
Designed for those just starting out in the field of privacy law, this web conference will provide a crash course in the legal foundations of privacy in the U.S. along with practical examples from the daily lives of privacy attorneys. This hour-long webinar will include time for questions and answers and a useful handout with resources for getting started in the privacy profession.

The all-day workshop on March 7, titled “GDPR Implementation: Status, Key Challenges, and Understanding the Core Principles of Transparency, Consent and Legitimate Interest,” will be co-hosted by the Spanish Data Protection Authority. The agenda will focus on four key areas:
- member states’ and regulators’ ongoing activities, priorities and progress in implementing the GDPR;
- the most significant challenges industry is facing in becoming GDPR compliant by May 2018;
- how to make the GDPR’s transparency requirement user-centric and meaningful so that it enables broad, accountable and trusted data uses; and
- how to use consent, legitimate interest and other grounds for processing personal data under the GDPR in the context of the modern information ecosystem.
On March 6, CIPL will hold a special pre-workshop session with Bruno Gencarelli, Head of Unit, International Data Flows and Protection, European Commission, to discuss the communication sent from the European Commission to the European Parliament and the Council on Exchanging and Protecting Personal Data in a Globalized World. The communication set forth the European Commission’s policy priorities and proposed action items with respect to cross-border data flows, relevant transfer and governance mechanisms, and global interoperability. The purpose of the pre-workshop session is to allow stakeholders to provide specific feedback to the European Commission regarding the communication.
The event in Madrid is part of CIPL’s ongoing GDPR Implementation Project, which aims to address the need for a constructive and expert dialogue between industry, regulators and key policymakers with the following specific objectives:
- facilitating consistent interpretations of the GDPR across the EU;
- informing and advancing constructive and forward-thinking interpretations of key GDPR requirements;
- facilitating consistency in the further implementation of the GDPR by EU Member States, the European Commission and the European Data Protection Board;
- examining best practices and challenges in the implementation of key GDPR requirements;
- sharing industry experiences and views to benchmark, coordinate and streamline the implementation of new compliance measures; and
- examining how the new GDPR requirements should be interpreted and implemented to advance the European Digital Single Market strategy and data-driven innovation, while protecting individuals’ privacy and respecting the fundamental right to data protection.
This multi-year project includes stakeholder workshops, roundtables, working sessions, white papers, webinars and public consultations.

The ePrivacy Directive, currently under revision by the European Commission, and the General Data Protection Regulation provide the legal framework to ensure digital privacy for EU citizens. The Commission is revising the ePrivacy Directive to align with the Digital Single Market Strategy.
In this context, EU40, the network of young MEPs, will bring together the most important players in a roundtable debate on the 6th of March from 15.00 to 17.00h, at the European Parliament. MEP Jan Philipp Albrecht and MEP Axel Voss will co-host the roundtable.
The debate will bring together the relevant MEPs, LIBE, IMCO and ITRE policy advisors from the political groups and committee secretariats, as well as Council, European Commission and perm reps players, who will come, in order to debate this fascinating and contested topic. Industry representatives will participate, next to consumers and academic experts in order to have all the dimensions of the topic inside the room and all the ingredients for a lively, real and honest debate. No boring speeches or already known facts!
Come for a truly genuine and productive exchange of ideas and possible solutions! It will take place in a small room, in order to enable an intensive, high level discussion, which will be web-streamed, allowing a larger public outside the Brussels Bubble to view and comment.
We will gather only experts on the topic and steer the debate with a few provocative questions!
Confirmed speakers are the following:
- Cornelia Kutterer, Digital Policy Director, Microsoft;
- Dr. Ian Walden, Professor of Information and Communications Law, Centre for Commercial Law Studies, Queen Mary, University of London;
- Prof. Niko Haerting, Lawyer, Partner, Haerting Lawyers;

- Dr. Frederik Zuiderveen Borgesius, Institute for Information Law, University of Amsterdam;

- Laure Chapuis, Internet Rights, e-Privacy, Cabinet Member of Vice-President Andrus Ansip;
The debate will be moderated by Magnus Franklin, Chief Correspondent, Telecoms, Media, IT at MLEX.
One of the biggest risks for organisations attempting to comply with Data Protection is outsourcing – and with GDPR around the corner, things are changing. Processors have to more than ever before, and both sides need to know their obligations. This online course sets out how to determine whether you are dealing with a partner organisation with the same obligations and responsibilities as you, or a ‘Data Processor’. It also includes what you need to do to ensure that you do not pay the price for your processors’ mistakes, and why some organisations already have.
U.S. colleges and universities are rapidly adopting new educational services and technologies that enable detailed data collection on student activities, learning success, and retention patterns. In addition, parents and prospective students want to “know before they go” what are the success rates of programs and schools they consider. Given the many possible benefits from the greatly expanded availability of data available, what are the associated privacy and security implications that universities and governments should be considering – what rights do students have to “own their data” and maintain awareness and choice about how it’s used?
Speakers from government, industry and academia will participate in more than 200 presentations and panel discussions addressing the potential for drones, robotics, and other unmanned systems. Among the program’s participants are the U.S. Department of Defense, FAA, NASA, and NOAA.
This innovative conference focuses on the practical and cutting-edge issues affecting electronic information, information governance, and data analytics. Leading jurists, attorneys, and legal and technological professionals will explore a wide array of eDiscovery issues, examining established precedent and projected new challenges, current and emerging technologies, and everything in between. All of our attendees, whether new to the world of eDiscovery or hoping to increase their existing eDiscovery expertise, will find knowledge, new ideas, and valuable networking opportunities at the ASU-Arkfeld eDiscovery and Digital Evidence Conference!
Last year’s event attracted over 180 attorneys, corporate counsel, law-practice support personnel, service providers, and other professionals.
