The EU General Data Protection Regulation ushered in an enhanced private right of action for violations of the law, both for material and non-material damages. Attorneys say there's now a significant uptick in cases brought alleging such a grievance has occurred, and that they're often brought as a "follow-on" to data protection authorities' own investigations. In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe attorneys Keily Blair, CIPP/E, and James Lloyd, both based in the U.K., describe the uptick in civil litigation claims they're seeing and the ways that's changing things — including how companies interact with data protection authorities.
