Yesterday, I had the pleasure of giving a 5h presentation on the latest case law on the GDPR and other data protection legislation at various levels (Belgium, other EU countries, the Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights) to Data Protection Officers from a broad range of organisations and companies.

(+ rinse and repeat in a few weeks during European Parliament phases) So here’s the explanation: today’s COREPER vote by EU Member States was one of two critical […]
