2nd PrivacyWeek; organised by the „Chaos Computer Club Wien“ in Vienna, Austria.
This year will be focused on BigData and Data trails (on/offline).
One week full of Talks, Panels, Workshops and special Events for Journalists, Teachers and Developers.
Some of the talks will be available via livestream – Visit the Website privacyweek.at.
The "right to privacy" is a human right.
And yet it is becoming increasingly difficult to protect this privacy. For deliberately as well as unintentionally we leave behind "digital tracks". Ever new technological advances are also being used to gather more and more accurate data about us. These "digital footprints" can help us to discover something new or to understand ourselves and our environment better. They have an impact on our daily lives, our health, our cohabitation and our social fabric. But they also serve as a decision-making base on whether we get a job, an education or a loan or not. And the data stored about us has an impact on future generations, even beyond our demise.
The PrivacyWeek seeks and provides answers to the questions that are becoming ever more important for us as individuals and our society. An extraordinary conference and workshop week in Vienna. For those with whom their privacy is important.
From 23rd to 29th October, the PrivacyWeek is particularly concerned with the data and data traces that we leave online and offline. Data providers, BigData, anonymisation of data, tracking as well as analysis and evaluation of user data.
Find out what data companies are storing about you, how they evaluate them, and how to deal with the ever-increasing amount of data others are collecting about you. Numerous lectures and workshops with international experts provide you with knowledge as well as practical tips. A whole week of concentrated information!
In addition to our broad-based program, there are 3 focus days this year with the focus on special target groups: journalists, programmers and educators.
You can find a first impression of the planned program here.
At other conferences, you often only have lectures, which are partly made up of product and company presentations.
The PrivacyWeek offers more:
No product or company presentations.
Workshops, in order to put the learned knowledge into practice.
Discussion and questioning.
"Ask the Experts". After a series of short impulses, you have the opportunity to deepen your knowledge in a small group.
An interactive exhibition will show you the data lanes you leave online.
Streaming of selected lectures, which will also be available after the PrivacyWeek.
This year, too, we will be able to present a series of high-caliber lecturers. In nearly 100 individual events, we provide you with first-class information on the subject of "privacy in the digital age". No sales pitches, no product presentations - but high-quality lectures and workshops. We are still expanding our program.
Tickets for the PrivacyWeek are now available.
Online in advance until 15.10.2017 with transfer or credit card.

During this three-day event, members collaborate on round-table exercises, incident simulations, panel discussions and working groups. Exposure to new ideas and approaches, best practice management of everyday issues and learning from observing the best and the brightest is an excellent and abundant return on investment.

Apart from just showing internally that you are compliant with the law, many companies are also looking for more public ways to confirm that they are meeting their data protection obligations. The GDPR offers various options to do so: adherence to a (sectoral) code of conduct, the development of Binding Corporate Rules or certification.
Article 42 and 43 GDPR allow for the development of certification mechanisms, seals and trust marks to demonstrate compliance with the provisions of the Regulation. In addition, the GDPR offers the possibility to non-EU data controllers, to certify their privacy program to assert they have implemented appropriate safeguards for data protection. This specific certification would allow for data transfers, even when no adequacy decision is in place. Nymity currently has a research project ongoing that looks into the various elements of GDPR certification.
During this webinar, we will look at both past and current certification mechanisms across the world and discuss lessons learned, based on our research project. Next, we will look ahead at what certification mechanisms under the GDPR could look like and why companies should consider to certify their privacy programs or their privacy technology. This will include the question if, and to what extent, Binding Corporate Rules could be regarded as a form of certification. Finally, we will discuss with representatives of the Article 29 Working Party what their guidance on the use of certifications under the GDPR could entail.

| The GDPR Practitioner Certificate (GDPR.Cert) is the qualification for those undertaking the role of Data Protection Officer under the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The course takes place over four days (one day per week) and involves lectures, discussion and practical exercises. This is followed by a written assessment on day 5. Candidates are then required to complete a project (in their own time) to achieve the certificate. |
