On 31 January 2020, the United Kingdom left the European Union. For the first time since its creation, a member state has decided to leave the common market, and for now, it is uncertain what the future holds for current privacy legislation. The new relationship between the UK and the EU will be negotiated in the course of this year, with the agreed transition period ending on 31 December. During this period, GDPR will apply as if nothing has changed. But what will happen after?
This webinar will discuss the following topics:
- What does Brexit mean from a data protection perspective?
- What does it mean for the UK itself and for the position of the Information Commissioner’s Office?
- What will be the impact of Brexit for data flows to and from the remaining 27 EU Member States and the countries of the European Economic Area?
- And will there be any impact on the UK-US data flows?
