On September 14, 2018, AEB Compliance & Ethics, HR, and  IT & Telecom Committees took part in the video-conference on EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) with the representatives of the European Commission. 


Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the European Union’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), governs the processing of personal data by any EU party. It also addresses the transfer of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas. The GDPR aims primarily to materially enhance the control by citizens and residents over their personal data and at the same time - to simplify the regulatory environment for international business.

Participants from the EU Delegation: 
Gencarelli Bruno – Head of Unit International Data Flows and Protection, DG JUSTICE of the European Commission.
Sauer Ralf – deputy Head of Unit International Data Flows and Protection, DG JUSTICE of the European Commission.
Jan OSstoja-Ostaszewski – policy officer, International Data Flows and Protection, DG JUSTICE of the European Commission.
Adrian Georgiev - Justice and Home Affairs Policy Officer / First Secretary, European Union Delegation to the Russian Federation

The participants addressed their questions and concerns about GDPR implementation -  on the volume of personal data to be transferred,  specific issues related to keeping personal info by the EU citizens in contracts with a EU company, while ordering passes, etc. 

As the follow up of this video-conference the 3d AEB meeting on GDPR entitled:  “General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):  Sharing best practices” will take place on Friday, 5 October 2018 at the AEB Conference Centre.
