Ready for GDPR? Here’s a Webcast that Can Help You Get Ready: eDiscovery Best Practices

If you think that your organization isn’t subject to the requirements of Europe’s impending General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you may be wrong about that.  If it is, are you on target to be compliant by May 25?  Here’s a chance to find out what you need to know to be compliant.

On Wednesday, February 21 at noon CST (1:00pm EST, 10:00am PST), CloudNine will conduct the webcast eDiscovery and the GDPR: Ready or Not, Here it Comes! In this one-hour webcast that’s CLE-approved in selected states, we will discuss how data privacy requirements have evolved over time, the parameters associated with the GDPR, what they mean to your organization and what steps your organization needs to take to ensure compliance with the GDPR.  Topics include:

  • How Data Privacy Requirements Have Evolved in the US and Europe
  • Scope of the GDPR Beyond the EU
  • A Definitional Baseline for GDPR
  • Important Changes and Organizational Impact
  • Data Existence and GDPR Compliance
  • Challenges Presented by Privacy Rights Associated with the GDPR
  • Fines: The Potential Cost of Non-Compliance
  • Business of the GDPR: Controllers and Processors
  • Steps to Take to Comply with the GDPR

Once again, I’ll be presenting the webcast, along with Tom O’Connor, who recently wrote an article about GDPR that we covered as a four part blog series.  To register for it, click here.  Even if you can’t make it, go ahead and register to get a link to the slides and to the recording of the webcast (if you want to check it out later).  Doing so might just keep you from a fine of the GREATER of €10 million or 2% of global annual revenue!

So, what do you think?  Are you ready for GDPR?  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
