On July 16, 2020, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) issued its long-awaited judgment in the far reaching Schrems II case which revamped the rules on global data privacy. This significant regulatory mandate layered on top of ongoing Brexit negotiations (not to mention a global pandemic) has made the thorniest of business climates even more so. So, what does life look like for the hundreds of corporate legal departments and law firms grappling with how to respond? As a follow up to our previous webinar on this topic , we wanted to look at what the practical reality has been for the legions of attorneys attempting to navigate this labyrinth. Please join us for a focused discussion where we will discuss:

- At the recent Code Blue 2020 Conference, what were the take-aways in regard to data transfer?
- What will fines look like should you be found to be in violation of the ruling?
- Five take-aways to make sure that your business is in compliance with the Court’s ruling
