The EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) goes into effect May 25, 2018. Proposed as a way to standardize data protection measures across Europe, the GDPR will significantly impact U.S. companies that collect personal data about Europeans. U.S. technology companies may be particularly vulnerable to enforcement and need to understand how the GDPR applies to them, the enforcement environment they face, and practical steps that can minimize risk.
Join Sidley Privacy partner William Long for an interactive webinar to understand how the GDPR creates new burdens on some data-driven business models and the key issues surrounding the GDPR that U.S. tech companies should consider, such as:
- 72-hour breach notification
- The "Right to be Forgotten"
- Marketing restrictions
- Greatly expanded potential fines
