• Hear about creative new global data transfer trends, and how other companies are planning to use Privacy Shield as part of their global strategy.

• Understand the current and future legal status of the Privacy Shield in Europe.

• Learn five ways Privacy Shield differs from Safe Harbor, and five simple steps to take to certify under Privacy Shield.
