During the discussion, we covered:

🔹 Voter data and campaign targeting
🔹 AI in political communications
🔹 Cybersecurity and democratic processes
🔹 Governance, public trust, and privacy law
🔹 The future of privacy in democracy

Last Friday, we hosted another episode of GDPR Radio, part of the Data Protection Made Easy podcast, with Caine Glancy and Catarina Santos.

During the session, we explored some of the biggest stories and developments from across the data protection landscape, discussing key regulatory updates, enforcement activity, emerging trends, and the practical implications for organisations. The conversation provided attendees with valuable insight into what these developments mean in practice and how organisations can stay ahead of an ever-evolving compliance environment.

Last Friday, Catarina Santos and Caine Glancy, discussed Training That Actually Changes Behaviour.

Most organisations provide training... but how often does it genuinely change behaviour, improve decision-making, or create accountability?

In this practical live discussion, we’ll explore what effective data protection training looks like in practice, why so much compliance training fails, and how organisations can evidence that learning is actually making a difference.

Join us for an episode of GDPR Radio, part of the Data Protection Made Easy podcast, hosted by Caine Glancy and Catarina Santos.

Last week, we discussed the key trends, biggest talking points, and sharing expert insight into the latest developments from the last two weeks across the data protection industry.

In this live session, Katerina Douni and Catarina Santos will explore the most common issues uncovered during GDPR audits and why they continue to appear across organisations.

They’ll break down recurring findings, explain the root causes behind them, and share practical insight on how to address gaps before they become regulatory problems.

Following the overwhelming response to our recent session on weaponised SARs, we hosted Part 2 on the Data Protection Made Easy podcast.

We had over 180 attendees join us live and received a huge number of questions and scenarios throughout the session. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to cover everything on the day, so this session is dedicated to going deeper.

In Part 2, we cover:
Revisiting the topic of weaponised SARs
Work through unanswered questions from the live chat
Discuss real scenarios submitted by attendees
Share further practical guidance on how organisations can respond
