Overview

Why You Should Attend

Following the marketplace uncertainty sparked when the European Court of Justice invalidated the EU-US Safe Harbor Framework, and after two years of politically-charged negotiations between the European Commission, the Department of Commerce announced on July 12, 2016 that it will begin accepting self-certifications under the new EU-US Privacy Shield Framework on August 1, 2016. 

This program is for individuals charged with taking Privacy Shield discussions to the next step.  It is for those evaluating cross-border data transfer mechanisms, understanding the practical implications in choosing the Privacy Shield Framework over other options, and implementing the procedural enhancements now in place under this new approach.  It is for practitioners within every organization – legal, compliance, IT security, and audit – hoping to gain insights and practical information before deciding whether to self-certify to Privacy Shield’s stringent requirements.  If your company was among the 4,000 previously certified under EU-US Safe Harbor Arrangement, this program is definitely for you.
