Hunton publiceert gids voor nieuwe Algemene verordening persoonsgegevens van EU
BRUSSEL & LONDEN–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Na veel debatten lijkt het erop dat het Europees Parlement deze week een definitieve versie van de nieuwe Europese Algemene verordening gegevensbescherming (AVGB) aanneemt, waarna de maatregel begin 2018 in werking treedt. De verordening verandert wetgeving binnen de Europese Unie aanzienlijk, en heeft veel invloed op bedrijven in de energiesector, de financiële branche, de gezondheidszorg, productie, detailhandel, technologie en de transportsector. Om interne juristen en privacy-specialisten bij te staan bij het begrip van de nieuwe verordening en de planning voor de implementatie, heeft de praktijk voor cyberveiligheid van Hunton Williams de The EU General Data Protection Regulation, a Guide for In-House Lawyers gepubliceerd. Deze publicatie behandelt de volgende strategische gebieden:
- jurisdictie en territoriaal bereik
- handhaving, sancties en straffen
- toezichthoudende instanties
- verantwoording
- waarschuwingen
- ingebouwde privacy en standaard privacy (‘privacy by design’ en ‘privacy by default’)
- profilering
- rapporteren van datalekken
- verplichtingen van verwerkers
- voorwaarden voor verwerking
- anonimisering en pseudonimisering
- grensoverschrijdende data-overdracht
