How to Comply with the GDPR While Unlocking the Value of Big Data

Broadcast Date: Tuesday, January 31, 2017
Time:  8:30 – 9:30 am PT, 11:30 am – 12:30 pm ET, 16:30 – 17:30 GMT

The ability to anonymize data sets of personal information opened up vast opportunities in the commercial sector in terms of targeted marketing and business insights. At the same time, rapidly evolving abilities of “big data” algorithms combined with proliferating online databases have made re-identification a looming threat for individuals.

These technological advancements helped precipitate the GDPR and other emerging data protection regimes. Since all major companies now rely on big data for analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, it’s critical that companies enable compliance in a way that allows for the irreplaceable value of their data assets to be utilized.

The challenge now is how to comply with GDPR and other data protection regime requirements while tapping into the increasingly necessary business value that big data can provide. While difficult, solutions are emerging to provide for both.

Join us for this timely educational online conversation, featuring some of the leading thinkers in the privacy field and discover:

  • How to understand GDPR compliance obligations as a potential business enabler, rather than a disabler of business objectives.
  • How to achieve balance between proper data protection and responsible utilization of big data’s powerful analytic abilities.
  • Effective technical tools available right now to help you navigate your regulatory requirements.

Time will be made available for your questions to be answered, so we’re encouraging you to submit any you may have (which will be read anonymously) ahead of the web conference to: [email protected]

To gain insight into the issues that will be discussed during the program, we recommend that you download and read this specially prepared white paper in advance: Meeting Upcoming GDPR Requirements While Maximizing the Full Value of Data Analytics: Balancing the Interests of Regulators, Data Controllers and Data Subjects.

Panelists:
Gary LaFever, CEO, Anonos
Mike Hintze, CIPP/US, Hintze Law, formerly Chief Privacy Counsel and Assistant General Counsel, Microsoft
Gwendal Le Grand, Director of Technology and Innovation, CNIL

ePrivacy Directive: Combining modern marketing & Privacy

February 8

Free

February 8th, 2017
18:00 – 20:00 o’clock, followed by a cocktail
European Parliament
Brussels

This year, FEDMA’s annual event is dedicated to the review of the ePrivacy Directive. The European Commission has published a legislative proposal on the 10th of January, for a regulation to replace the old ePrivacy Directive, also known as the cookie Directive.

This event will look at the intent of the European Commission with this proposal, and discuss the various views that the proposal has generated, including from the European Parliament and the Council.

Is the proposal coherent with modern marketing practices and consumer’s privacy expectations, which both have evolved, supported by technological developments, changes in habits and perception? Discussions will evolve around the economic and societal contribution of data driven marketing, and the importance of consumer choice and trust, highlighting the ethical efforts of our industry as well as the development of many easy tools for consumers to express their choice.

The review of the ePrivacy directive will impact the existing rules governing many communication channels used by the data driven marketing industry (email marketing, telemarketing, online behavioural advertising…). This event will be the occasion to feed directly in the discussions with policy makers, reminding them of our industry’s efforts to preserve consumer’s privacy and trust, and present them with concrete tools the industry has developed to empower consumers.

Speakers include: MEP Axel Voss, Claire Bury, Deputy Director General at DG CNECT,Wojciech Wiewiórowski, Asistant EDPS, Andrew Camilleri, Senior Policy Officer Telecom, Maltese Presidency…
