Last week, as the U.S. presidential election results unfolded, the IAPP was holding its annual Data Protection Congress in Brussels, Belgium. The timing of the election with the first day of the conference had a strong impact on the conversations that took place both on and off the stage there. But there was much to discuss, even without the election results, including how privacy pros are preparing for the GDPR, whether it's worth it to use the Privacy Shield as your data transfer mechanism, and what the role of the mandatory data protection officer will look like, among other topics. In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, Publications Director Sam Pfeifle, European Managing Director Paul Jordan, and Editor of The Privacy Advisor Angelique Carson discuss the highlights of what went down last week in Brussels.
