From May 2018, a new pan-European data protection law will come into force in the form of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which will largely replace the German Federal Data Protection Act.
This means that companies will be faced with numerous legal and technical changes that will affect areas such as HR, IT, compliance, processes, etc. and require adaptation to the requirements of the GDPR. As the GDPR will become directly applicable in Germany on May 25, 2018 without any further transition period, it is important to use the remaining year to avoid potential disadvantages and fines.
On this occasion, our after-work store on the topic of the “New EU General Data Protection Regulation” will take place as a cooperation event together with the auditing and tax consulting firm Ebner Stolz on Thursday, May 4, 2017, at 6:00 pm at the Hotel TITANIC at Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin.
Agenda:
Part 1:
Overview of the most important regulations of the GDPR as well as the essential legal precautions to ensure GDPR compliance (e.g. consent, permissions, adaptation of existing regulations, company agreements).
Part 2:
Technical data protection, data security: presentation of the implementation of security measures that result from other requirements (such as the IT Security Act) with the GDPR and generate added business value (“Data Protection ISMS” (Information Security Management System) and “Privacy by Design” in the context of software and system architectures).
Part 3:
Presentation of the effects of the GDPR on special forensic investigations in the event of white-collar crime. Based on a practical case, an overview of the course of a forensic investigation and the challenges of collecting and processing digital data will be given.
We would be delighted to welcome you to our presentation event followed by a get-together!
