Serious Privacy

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool discuss the 10-7 series of deliberately machinated and long-awaited political events surrounding the EU-US data transfer mechanism that is intended to replace the Privacy Shield, invalidated under Schrems II back in 2020 - the “thingie.” Plus, the UK-US joint statement on adequacy consideration. These various events comprise the Executive Order (the Fact sheet along with the information on the European Commission site), the Department of Commerce statement, the Department of Justice from the Office of the Attorney General on the Data Protection review Board final rule, and the NOYB’s response. As expected, and TrustArc predicted, those companies who remained in the Privacy Shield will have a transition plan. For additional information, please also see various analyses from the IAPP and the Future of Privacy Forum.  Carry the conversation further and connect with us to discuss.As always, if you have comments or questions, let us know - LinkedIn, Twitter @podcastprivacy @euroPaulB @heartofprivacy @trustArc and email seriousprivacy@trustarc.com.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool are headed to South America to see what is happening in privacy. With one cohost based in the United States and the other in Europe, it is no surprise that the focus of the Serious Privacy conversations is often the transatlantic relationship. Of course, data protection goes beyond the European Union and the United States, many Latin American countries have had national data protection laws for quite a long time. So José Alejandro Bermúdez joined the show to share a wealth of knowledge on privacy laws, especially an update on Colombia. José was the inaugural data protection commissioner in Columbia and a longtime data protection advocate. José was a member of the governmental commission appointed to draft the Columbian data protection and its secondary regulations, and a member of the Colombian OECD accession mission for privacy in the digital economy. He is currently the LATAM advisor for the Centre for Information Policy Leadership - so he knows a thing or two about privacy in Latin America.As always, if you have comments or questions, let us know - LinkedIn, Twitter @podcastprivacy @euroPaulB @heartofprivacy @trustArc and email seriousprivacy@trustarc.com.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool catch up on a slow week in privacy. We do touch on some meaty topics that are usually overlooked, such as a CISO going into trial on personal liability for a data breach (or rather the non-disclosure of a data breach), the American Data Protection and Privacy Act’s (ADPPA’s) future, with the recent statement by Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi on her support or lack thereof, and the GDPR implementation review. Tune in and hear what these and other wildly exciting topics come up.Register for TrustArc's upcoming webinar on rethinking how consumer data is managed on Sept. 20.As always, if you have comments or questions, let us know - LinkedIn, Twitter @podcastprivacy @euroPaulB @heartofprivacy @trustArc and email seriousprivacy@trustarc.com.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool catch up on a week in privacy. This week is all about the C’s - COPPA, code, California, Cuba, Colombia, cars, consultations, and more. We talk about the new age appropriate design code bill that is before the CA governor for signature. It is expected to pass in spite of the opposition against it. Cuba’s new law is covered, but we only touch on Colombia because we have an upcoming guest for that topic. The new CNIL enforcement against UBEEQO is wonderfully instructive in its findings, if not its recommendations. And also the Sephora settlement in California under the California Consumer Privacy Act, addressing the “sell” of data, service providers’ contracts, and notice. The slightly unexpected aspect centering on GPC, Global Privacy Control.Join us for an enlightening and entertaining conversation, with a couple of bloopers for the listeners - someone suggested that we give y’all a treat with outtakes, so one day, we may put together a special episode (and it’s not just K who bloops).

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Outschool connect with perhaps a controversial player in the privacy game, Gal Ringel, Founder and CEO of Mine. (on Twitter @MineApp and @GalRingel) You might recognize the name from a slew of individual rights requests. We agree that everyone should be able to understand what personal data organisations process about them. However, it can be a challenge to find out how to file these access requests for each and every company that may have your data - there could literally be thousands of companies to write to.Gal is based in Tel Aviv, Israel, and has a background in military intelligence, software development and investment. He is also a member of the Forbes Technology Council. He saw a need and was inspired to help make it easy both for individuals and companies.  In recent years, there have been several initiatives launched to make it easier for individuals to exercise their rights. The Dutch civil rights group Bits of Freedom has for example launched a project called My Data Done Right, that allows you to create your access request letters. Join us for an enlightening and entertaining conversation with Gal and our mutual love of data protection rights.
