About this Conference

This online conference will provide attendees with the most up-to-date information surrounding the ever-changing landscape of data privacy. Topics will include international data transfers, how to use the new Standard Contractual Clauses, and also GDPR certification & what type of organisations will benefit. We will explore where is the line between individual privacy and public health when it comes to employee vaccination data, and what are the new rules applying to removing information about children? If you work with personal data in any capacity, this event will be of real value to you.

This Conference is a unique live virtual event from our own custom-built CMG Studios. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with attendees praising the additional interactive elements, as well as increased Q&A opportunities throughout the day, giving you more opportunity to gain real practical insights on the key issues that are important to you.
