As the Article 29 Working Party studies the Privacy Shield text, companies on both sides of the Atlantic are doing the same. The recently released replacement for Safe Harbor has made headlines with any number of new features, from the ombudsman housed in the U.S. State Department to the annual summit that will be convened to reexamine how the agreement between the United States and European Union is performing. There's even continuing discussion about whether the Shield will go forward in the EU at all. However, there are many other operational requirements for companies that would like to join the program that have received far less attention. In this podcast, hosted by IAPP VP of Research and Education, a panel of thought leaders discuss the text of the Privacy Shield agreement and offer advice to companies looking to join the program, as well as thoughts on the Shield's future as a working adequacy agreement from the European Commission. Featuring: Omer Tene, VP Research and Education, IAPP Monika Kuschewsky, CIPP/E, Covington & Burling James Mullock, CIPP/E, Bird & Bird Eduardo Ustaran, CIPP/E, Hogan Lovells Miriam Wugmeister, Morrison & Foerster
