Send us a textIn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Crawford & Company connected with two key individuals at Europol:  Daniel Drewer who is the head of Europol's data protection office and Jan Ellerman, one of the senior experts. Europol isn’t quite the way it is portrayed in the movies, so tune in for the real story.You can probably imagine the amount of personal data that is needed to make all the crime analysis. Because of that, Europol for a long time already claims to have one of the most robust data protection frameworks in the world of law enforcement. Our guests today are responsible for that framework. Daniel and Jan talk about what it means to protect personal data in a law enforcement context, when every piece of personal data could be the missing piece of the puzzle.More information on the Eden conference later this year, is available here.

Send us a textIn this episode of Serious Privacy, Paul Breitbarth of Catawiki and Dr. K Royal of Crawford & Company talk with dr. Laura Drechsler, Research Fellow at the Centre for IT and IP Law (CITIP) at the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. They discuss Laura's work on cross-border data transfers, comparing the decisions of the European courts and the guidance of the data protection authorities with the adequacy decisions that have been published by the European Commission.

This week's episode may be a little bit more philosophical than our usual ones. No big updates on what's happening in the world of privacy, but instead of conversation about ethics, what does it mean to take an ethical approach to data processing? And how does it work on a daily basis? This includes a perspective by Bojana Bellamy the President of Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP’s Centre for Information Policy Leadership  (CIPL) published with the IAPP.
