Last day before the GDPR comes into effect.

May 24th, 2018 - Data Portability and Privacy Information Sharing  #EoP1 Venue: Open Data Institute, 65 Clifton St, London EC2A 4JE

DESCRIPTION

Come celebrate the end of Privacy with a conference at the Open Data Institute, with experts in privacy, a remote broadcast from MIT and the launch of the Data Privacy and Controls Community Group at the W3C.

**

As we know, May 25th marks the day new data privacy rules become enforceable across the EU.  It represents a shift to a new privacy paradigm more equipped for digital information society.  This includes new performance requirements, like being able to demonstrate consent for processing personal data, granting free access to personal data “in a structured, commonly used and machine readableformat” and transferring it “without hindrance” to other services, as well as providing explanations and “meaningful information” in relation to the logic, significance and consequences of automated decision-making.  

In this invitation-only event, experts and innovators examine the significance of these changes, pondering what standards are needed to face the challenges and opportunities for a new generation of consumer-facing technologies and service providers.

Real Consent: Digital Catapult Workshop Series

Real Consent- The Journey.png

The Digital Catapult Real Consent Workshop series was comprised of 5 workshops and many project collocations. The workshops start in January 2016 and ended in February 2017. The series was a great success with the last event completely booked and attended by industry leaders, leading academics, rising star innovators and SME's. 

The aim of the series was to explore a better understanding of what it would take to engineer Real Consent that is meaningful for people.

The workshop series brought together many collaborations, and produced a research and design from Digital Catapult that extended the Kantara Initiative Consent Receipt Standard

This included,

  • A report on the use of privacy receipts for transparency and user data control.

  • A project for testing the usability and utility of privacy receipts

  • The production of a physical space entry system, tested at digital catapult, which sent people privacy reciepts upon entry, informing people of personal data processing.

The series brought together over 50 speakers and generated innovation in privacy and transparency.

The last event lineup included,

  • Kantara Initiative EU - V.1 : Consent Receipt - Mark Lizar - CEO of Open Consent -

  • Digital Catapult: Personal Data Receipt - Michele Nati - Lead Technologist at the Digital Catapult
