The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has now been in force for seven years. During that time, fines have totalled billions of euros, with over €1 billion in fines coming in the past 12 months.
The most recent fines show that both large and small businesses are subject to regulators’ scrutiny. Plus, EU data protection law continues to evolve and shape enforcement actions across the world, particularly as more US tech companies push back on fines, and the UK seeks to roll back its GDPR-style laws.
In this webinar, we took a deep dive into recent and significant fines and enforcement actions, examined developments in GDPR case law, and explored the new challenges posed by AI.
This live, one-hour webinar, held on GDPR’s seventh anniversary, explored its widespread impact—not just in Europe but around the world. As countries like Brazil, California, and China moved quickly to implement GDPR-style protections, we asked: what does the future hold for data privacy?
The webinar covered:
- Recent GDPR fines and case studies
- International developments and new GDPR-style laws around the world
- Focus areas for EU data protection authorities
- Where the UK and US stood with data protection and GDPR
- Artificial intelligence and data protection laws
- Best practice guidance to strengthen GDPR compliance
