Data Protection Training Course in the Age of the GDPR

Three sessions proposed by Ms. Sarah Bailey, Esq., and Ms. Frédérique Potin, Esq., of the firm Simmons & Simmons LLP, including a special “health data protection” session

The May 25, 2018 deadline for compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is now behind us. However, compliance requires daily monitoring, in all business sectors, in order to provide effective and efficient protection in the processing of personal data.

These two months of hindsight provide us with the opportunity to make an assessment of the compliance work that has been performed for the May 25, 2018 deadline, and of the recommendations issued by the European and French supervisory authorities.

The firm Simmons&Simmons proposes three breakfasts with a presentation of the following themes:

• Tuesday, October 2, 2018, , 9-10:30 a.m. : Lessons of the initial months of the GDPR’s implementation ? Best practices and advice for successfully complying with the GDPR.
• Tuesday, October 9, 2018,  9-10:30 a.m. : The amended French Data Protection Act, and its implementation decree : what are the obligations ? How does it work with the GDPR ? What are the CNIL’s recommendations ?
• Tuesday, October 16, 2018, 9-10:30 a.m. : a special “Health Data Protection” session and the specific requirements of the GDPR and French Data Protection Act for the processing of sensitive data
