Episode 29: Regulating the future of AI and ML

In today’s episode, we are delving into the hot topic of Digital Vaccine Passports and Certificates.  We outline the complex mix of technology, privacy and practical issues in a global context.    As we did in Episodes 24 &amp; 25, we look at the significant practical, technical and privacy issues surrounding how nation states and governments want to use technology to prove human beings can travel internationally, cross borders in the EU and get access to domestic venues, events, retail outlets and much more besides.  Arguably a more complex problem to solve than tracking and tracing individuals.  We consider the lack of effectiveness of the Track and Trace apps in the UK &amp; EU and wonder how acceptable solutions can be found for Vaccine Passports and Certificates - a wider problem involving citizens, businesses, medical records and often new and emerging technology.    Again, we find ourselves asking the same question: how do we find a rapid and effective way to discuss and agree the extended use of our data to manage this pandemic and halt the damage from lockdowns?  We urgently need a forum to be able to have these discussions.   As Privacy, Legal and Techology professionals we must contribute to solutions to help support governments to enable better pandemic management. There are far more questions than answers, so this episode will be the start of our journey to keep up to date with developments. GDPR Now!

The decision by the ECJ on 16th July 2020, to invalidate the EU - US Privacy Shield sent shockwaves across organisations in the EU and US.

Join me, Karen Heaton and guest Mark Sherwood-Edwards, lawyer, data protection specialist and founder of Clearview Legal to discuss the latest pronouncements from the EC, on a revision of the Standard Contractual Clauses, Safeguards for transfers to the US (and other third countries) and of course, the impact of Brexit and what this will mean if the EC does not grant adequacy status to the UK.

Episode 26: What next for EU-US data transfers post-Privacy Shield?  Keep hiding in that herd! 

In today’s episode, we are delving into the issues we discussed in our previous episode #24 on the NHS Track and Trace app and considering in more detail the legal, privacy and practicality barriers to many track and trace apps in Europe.  We discuss the take up of Track and Trace apps in the EU and find it is mostly 30% of the population and lower.  Data privacy when using apps has been protected due to EU GDPR, however, other basic freedoms have been taken from us and our way of life severely impacted over the course of 2020.  Track and trace apps have not had the hoped-for beneficial impact in the EU.  Had we taken a different approach to using more data and made the apps mandatory, could the outcomes have been different?   What does this mean in practise for track and trace apps as future solutions to help governments manage pandemics?  Compare and contrast to other Asian countries. If 70 - 80% app usage is realistically needed to be effective, then why did we not make track and trace apps mandatory?  What are we to learn from countries in Asia? How do we find a rapid and effective way to discuss and agree the extended use of our data to improve outcomes, rapidly, either during pandemics or outside of them?  As Privacy, Legal and Tech professionals we must continue this conversation and find a framework for agreeing the greater use of data in a mandatory way to support better pandemic and health outcomes.    The economic costs of lockdowns are extremely high and have a direct effect on a nation's ability to provide future healthcare.  Our short term fix to today's problem could cause many more problems for the future.   GDPR Now!

COVID 19 Pandemic and the impact on Data Protection

Privacy By Design is one of the key elements of good data protection, and is made mandatory by Article 25 of the GDPR.  But what does PbD mean in practice? In this podcast, we look at the key elements of PbD, discuss some actual use cases, and examine how to apply PbD on the ground. GDPR Now! Is brought to you by This Is DPO. www.thisisdpo.co.uk. Guest Sam Bouso, Founder and CEO of Precognitive Inc.,  sbouso@precognitive.io https://precognitive.com/ Host Mark Sherwood-Edwards  info@thisisdpo.co.uk Materials Recommended By Sam Bouso Article “Privacy By Design Is Important For Every Area Of Your Business”  is a good general intro  Book “The Ultimate GDPR Practitioner Guide: Demystifying Privacy &amp; Data Protection”  Especially Chapter 11 which has solid examples and areas of focus for those trying to implement PbD. Ann Cavoukian’s 7 principles of PbD Proactive not reactive; preventive not remedial The privacy by design approach is characterized by proactive rather than reactive measures. It anticipates and prevents privacy invasive events before they happen. Privacy by design does not wait for privacy risks to materialize, nor does it offer remedies for resolving privacy infractions once they have occurred — it aims to prevent them from occurring. In short, privacy by design comes before-the-fact, not after. Privacy as the default Privacy by design seeks to deliver the maximum degree of privacy by ensuring that personal data are automatically protected in any given IT system or business practice. If an individual does nothing, their privacy still remains intact. No action is required on the part of the individual to protect their privacy — it is built into the system, by default.  Privacy embedded into design Privacy by design is embedded into the design and architecture of IT systems as well as business practices. It is not bolted on as an add-on, after the fact. The result is that privacy becomes an essential component of the core functionality being delivered. Privacy is integral to the system without diminishing functionality.  Full functionality – positive-sum, not zero-sum Privacy by design seeks to accommodate all legitimate interests and objectives in a positive-sum “win-win” manner, not through a dated, zero-sum approach, where unnecessary trade-offs are made. Privacy by design avoids the pretense of false dichotomies, such as privacy versus security, demonstrating that it is possible to have both.  End-to-end security – full lifecycle protection Privacy by design, having been embedded into the system prior to the first element of information being collected, extends securely throughout the entire lifecycle of the data involved — strong security measures are essential to privacy, from start to finish. This ensures that all data are securely retained, and then securely destroyed at the end of the process, in a timely fashion. Thus, privacy by design ensures cradle-to-grave, secure lifecycle management of information, end-to-end. Visibility and transparency – keep it open Privacy by design seeks to assure all stakeholders that whatever the business practice or technology involved, it is in fact, operating according to the stated promises and objectives, subject to independent verification. Its component parts and operations remain visible and transparent, to users and providers alike. Remember, trust but verify.  Respect for user privacy – keep it user-centric Above all, privacy by design requires architects and operators to keep the interests of the individual uppermost by offering such measures as strong privacy defaults, appropriate notice, and empowering user-friendly options. Keep it user-centric.

Episode 14: Privacy by Design

GDPR Now! brought to you by This is DPO. Disproportionate, intrusive and unfair – the ICO report on ad tech and real time bidding (Part 1). This episode is  Part 1 of two parts. About this episode: In its recent paper, Update report into adtech and real time bidding, the ICO has set out a biting criticism of how real time bidding (RTB) currently operates in the UK.  The phrase disproportionate, intrusive and unfair occurs three times, and intrusive on its own is used an additional three times.  The paper is not intended as formal guidance, but it gives a clear sense of direction.  The ICO also adds that the issues it raises in this paper are not the only concerns it has with programmatic advertising. Although the ICO has stated that it will take another six months to investigate further, it is already clear that the ICO will intervene.  The ICO’s paper, and its forthcoming intervention, are likely to have a substantial impact in the programmatic industry in the EU and the US.  It is no exaggeration to say that the ICO’s intervention is likely to have a bigger impact on this industry than the GDPR.  To give some idea of scale: the worldwide spend of on digital advertising is expected to reach US$98bn in 2020.  In Europe, the UK is by far the largest market, followed by Germany and then France (approx. US$15bn, US$8bn, US$4bn, respectively, in 2018). In this episode, three luminaries from digital advertising get together to discuss the ICO’s report and the possible ways forward.

GDPR Now! is brought to you by This is DPO, www,thisisdpo.co.uk. *Cookies and the GDPR– ICO v CNIL. * About this episode: Both the UK’s ICO and France’s CNIL have issued updated guidance on cookies.  You would have thought that this is all old stuff, but the ICO’s paper comes hot on its Adtech paper where it stated that the UK industry does not understand the rules around cookies, nor the interrelationship between cookies and the GDPR.  In this podcast, we take a look at the eprivacy directive and see to what extent it makes sense and can be reconciled with the GDPR.   There are some surprises as it turns out that the CNIL has invented a new legal type of cookie.  This podcast is essential listening for anyone who wants to use cookies, whether first party or third party. Host: Mark Sherwood-Edwards of This Is DPO. www.thisisdpo.co.uk Email: mse@thisisdpo.co.uk Telephone: 07748 761972 Material referred to: Here’s the important paragraph from the ICO’s Guidance on the use of cookies and similar technologies (bottom of page 46):  The ICO cannot exclude the possibility of formal action in any area. However, it is unlikely that priority for any formal action would be given to uses of cookies where there is a low level of intrusiveness and low risk of harm to individuals. The ICO will consider whether you can demonstrate that you have done everything you can to clearly inform users about the cookies in question and to provide them with clear details of how to make choices. For example, the ICO is unlikely to prioritise first party cookies used for analytics purposes where these have a low privacy risk, or those that merely support the accessibility of sites and services, for regulatory action.

Host: Mark Sherwood-Edwards of This Is DPO. <a href="http://www.thisisdpo.co.uk" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.thisisdpo.co.uk</a> Email: <a href="mailto:mse@thisisdpo.co.uk" rel="nofollow">mse@thisisdpo.co.uk</a> Telephone: 07748 761972 Material referred to: Here’s the important paragraph from the ICO’s Guidance on the use of cookies and similar technologies (bottom of page 46): <blockquote> The ICO cannot exclude the possibility of formal action in any area. However, it is unlikely that priority for any formal action would be given to uses of cookies where there is a low level of intrusiveness and low risk of harm to individuals. The ICO will consider whether you can demonstrate that you have done everything you can to clearly inform users about the cookies in question and to provide them with clear details of how to make choices. For example, the ICO is unlikely to prioritise first party cookies used for analytics purposes where these have a low privacy risk, or those that merely support the accessibility of sites and services, for regulatory action. </blockquote> Guidance on the use of cookies and similar technologies, ICO <a href="https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-pecr/guidance-on-the-use-of-cookies-and-similar-technologies/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-pecr/guidance-on-the-use-of-cookies-and-similar-technologies/</a> Délibération n° 2019-093 du 4 juillet 2019 portant adoption de lignes directrices relatives à l'application de l'article 82 de la loi du 6 janvier 1978 modifiée aux opérations de lecture et écriture dans le terminal d'un utilisateur (notamment aux cookies et autres traceurs), CNIL <a href="https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000038778053&amp;dateTexte=&amp;categorieLien=id" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000038778053&amp;dateTexte=&amp;categorieLien=id</a> Opinion 5/2019 on the interplay between the ePrivacy Directive and the GDPR, in particular regarding the competence, tasks and powers of data protection authorities, adopted on 12 March 2019, EDPB. <a href="https://edpb.europa.eu/sites/edpb/files/files/file1/201905_edpb_opinion_eprivacydir_gdpr_interplay_en_0.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://edpb.europa.eu/sites/edpb/files/files/file1/201905_edpb_opinion_eprivacydir_gdpr_interplay_en_0.pdf</a> Contact details You can contact the show at <a href="mailto:info@thisisdpo.co.uk" rel="nofollow">info@thisisdpo.co.uk</a>.
