Nestor Nestor Diculescu Kingston Petersen Specialist at the European Data Protection Intensive Conference

Data Protection Intensive is one of the most prestigious international events on data protection, an essential event for large companies doing business across Europe and their advisors. The event took place in London and was organized by DataGuidance.

Speaking to an audience of international privacy professionals and regulators, Roxana Ionescu focused her presentation on the ruling issued by the Romanian Constitutional Court on the unconstitutionality of the Data Retention Law No. 298/2008, as well as on other data protection matters resulting from the recent practice of the Romanian courts and the National Authority for the Supervision of Personal Data Processing.

'The Data Protection Intensive has the unique quality of combining updates on legislative and regulatory initiatives in the emerging field that is data protection with practical input from practitioners all around Europe and we are happy we had the opportunity to contribute to this event with our local expertise on the evolution of the Romanian privacy framework and practice over the past four years', Roxana Ionescu said.

The European Data Protection Intensive provides an unrivalled opportunity to get up to speed with the latest data protection developments across the EU and to network with high-caliber industry professionals. Key-note speakers included, in the first day, the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS), Peter Hustinx, as well as other high caliber specialists such as David Smith, Deputy Information Commissioner at the Information Commissioner Office (UK), Suzanne Roadway, Group Privacy Director at Barclays Bank plc, Cindy Yip, Legal Counsel at Google, and Nick Stringer, Director of Regulatory Affairs at the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB).

The second day of the Intensive focused on interactive sessions with privacy experts representing each European Member State, as well as Russia, Turkey and Macedonia.
