In this episode of The Privacy Impact Shop, hosts Ben and Shaab dive into the ever-evolving world of privacy, regulation, and the value of data. From their recent travels and training sessions to the latest ICO actions on cookie compliance, the conversation explores how organisations are managing consent, regulation, and reputation in a fast-moving digital landscape.

They tackle hot topics including:

• The ICO’s expanded review of the UK’s top 1,000 websites for cookie banner compliance
• The rise of “consent or pay” models and what they mean for consumers and businesses
• The growing commercialisation of personal data and what your data might really be worth
• Profiling tools, safety applications, and the ethical boundaries of data-driven decision-making

Lively, insightful, and often humorous, Ben and Shaab unpack how privacy, technology, and commerce continue to collide and what it means for organisations navigating compliance.
