IAPP Global Summit 2026: Privacy | AI governance | Cybersecurity law
WASHINGTON, DC
30 March-2 April
A Practical Guide to Adaptive Privacy Frameworks for AI
Monday, 30 March
13:45 - 14:45 EDT
Intermediate level
Every privacy professional has lived this moment: the AI pilot clears internal review, launches successfully, and six months later, no one can explain whether the system in production is still compliant. What if the real risk is not lack of controls, but reliance on privacy frameworks that were never designed to adapt? This session will follow realistic AI deployment from initial launch through retraining and scale to expose where traditional, point-in-time privacy reviews quietly fail. As the system evolves, models change, data flows expand, and third parties are introduced, yet privacy controls remain frozen in time. The speakers will introduce a modern operating model for privacy that aligns with how AI systems are built, retrained, and deployed in production. Through concrete, real-world scenarios, attendees will see exactly where manual reviews, static DPIAs and ROPAs, and one-time approvals break down and what continuous, technically grounded approaches can replace them.
What you will learn:
• How to identify the hidden failure points in existing privacy programs with AI systems.
• A clear understanding of how adaptive privacy enables better decisions, stronger oversight and trust, facilitates responsible data use, and creates more credible regulatory narratives as AI programs mature.
• Practical governance patterns that shift privacy from episodic review to continuous oversight, allowing you to transition from reactive audit responses to proactive compliance.
