Registration is still open for our free workshop on GDPR Certification and International Data Transfers. Join the European Centre for Certification and Privacy (ECCP) in Brussels on 17 November 2026 to explore what recent European Data Protection Board (EDPB) opinions mean for DPOs, privacy counsel and compliance teams.
What the workshop will cover
The workshop will examine when GDPR certification can serve as an appropriate safeguard for international data transfers under Article 46 GDPR, what commitments data importers need to make, and where the mechanism’s limits lie.
Speakers will also walk through the certification process, from defining the scope and gathering evidence to preparing for an audit. A DPO who has been through the process will share first-hand lessons. The workshop will also look at how organisations can use certification to demonstrate accountability and provide evidence to management, clients and procurement teams.
