#ReadyforGDPR? (webinar)

If you have a website, use customer or staff data or engage in almost any form of marketing you will likely be caught. The new very high fine levels for breaches and the need to be able to prove compliance mean companies, regardless of size, must take steps now to prepare. Having no physical presence in Europe is not a "pass."

Join Pillsbury as we look at the practical steps companies need to take now in order to be prepared, and to do what the regulators want. We will also discuss the latest feedback from enforcers as to what will most likely trigger fines.

Topics include:

• Understanding the key impacts of the GDPR, including its extra-jurisdictional reach and the new fine levels
• What businesses need to do now in practical terms and what to prioritize
• Problems to note regarding Model Clauses and Shield, and why BCRs should be considered for your data transfers
• What we are hearing from recent discussions with the regulators and what they want to see to show GDPR compliance
• What companies should do (and not do) now to prepare, and, importantly, what “GDPR solutions” or “tools” they should actually avoid
