EU data protection law does not allow the transfer of personal information to countries outside the EEA that do not have an adequate level of data protection. This prohibition is entirely at odds with the way in which organisations operate in today’s world and presents a difficult legal challenge to global data processing and international outsourcing.

Attend this Workshop to identify the most appropriate solution to the challenges faced by your organisation and learn about the most cost-effective way to comply with the law.

The Workshop will address all of the practical questions affecting international transfers of personal data such as:

• Can I rely on consent to transfer employee data?
• How do I justify the use of model contracts to my service providers?
• What level of security is an offshore call centre required to adopt?
• Which EU jurisdictions require regulators’ approval prior to the transfer?
• Can I use an intra-group agreement to enable global processing within my organisation?
• What materials do I need to submit when applying for Binding Corporate Rules approval?
• What is the right approach to adopt in my particular case?

Who should attend:

In-house lawyers, Data Protection Officers, Compliance Officers, International Development Directors and Managers, IT Directors and Managers, HR Directors and Managers, Outsourcing Service Providers and more…
