SUMMARY:Privacy Puzzle: 8 YEARS OF GDPR: Anniversary reflections\, AI disruption\, Digital Omnibus\, and what’s next
DESCRIPTION:Eight years after the GDPR came into force\, organisations have moved beyond understanding the regulation to the harder challenge of applying it consistently in a complex environment. \nMuch has changed since 2018. AI is shifting how personal data is used across businesses\, often in ways that do not sit neatly within existing frameworks. At the same time\, the proposed Digital Omnibus package aims to simplify aspects of the GDPR\, but it remains unclear how this will play out in practice. \nAs a result\, organisations are facing increasing uncertainty. \nIn this GDPR anniversary session\, our specialist DPO panel will explore these key areas: \n\nWhere organisations are most exposed and how expectations are changing\nWhether the proposed Digital Omnibus will help or add further complexity?\nHow AI is changing risk and what it means for compliance\nWhether current privacy approaches are fit for what’s ahead\n\n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Privacy Puzzle: EU & UK CLINICAL TRIALS: Are you clear on your data protection and legal representation requirements?
DESCRIPTION:Expanding clinical trials into the EU and UK creates new opportunities for sponsors but also brings complex data protection and legal requirements. \nUnder the EU Clinical Trials Regulation (CTR)\, sponsors without an EU establishment must appoint a clinical trial legal representative as part of the submission process. The same obligation applies to EU medical device and in vitro diagnostic device (IVD) performance studies conducted under the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and In Vitro Device Regulation (IVDR). \nIn addition\, organisations are typically required to appoint a Data Protection Representative (DPR) under the GDPR\, with comparable requirements under UK clinical trial and data protection laws. \nWhile both a legal representative and DPR are essential\, they serve distinct purposes and are frequently misunderstood or treated as interchangeable. \nJoin experts from The DPO Centre and DLRC Group to understand how to remove friction from your application process and ensure both your legal and data protection framework is right first time. Hear directly from specialists with extensive experience advising sponsors across multi-jurisdictional trials. \nYou’ll learn: \n\nWhen you need a clinical trial or device trial legal representative and the key role and responsibilities involved\nWhen you need a DPR\, and how this can impact trial timelines\nThe common pitfalls of trial set-up\, and how to ensure you meet both clinical and data protection requirements\n\nThis session will close with a live Q&A\, giving you the opportunity to ask questions specific to your trial study and sense-check your approach. If you are entering into EU or UK trials\, this is a session you do not want to miss. \n  \nRegister here
