17th Annual BCLT Privacy Lecture: Data Privacy on Trial - A Comparative Analysis of Enforcement, Damages, Sanctions, and Standing in EU and U.S. Law

$115.00
  • Instructor(s):  BCLT

Program occured October 31 , 2024 Event Information | Agenda The European Data Privacy Regime under the GDPR stresses that a law is only as good as its enforcement. Thus, EU data protection law includes a refined, complex set of instruments to incentivize data processors and to deter them from deviating from the law. This lecture analyzes the reach of civil actions by the data subject and administrative actions through independent data protection agencies, of private damages and public sanctions, and of collective prosecutions. It takes a comparative approach and looks as well at the information privacy law in the United States concerning the constitutional law of standing and privacy harms.   Speaker: Dr. Indra Spiecker, University of Cologne Commentators: Sari Mazzurco, Dedman School of Law, Southern Methodist University Margot E. Kaminski, University of Colorado Law School Paul Shwartz, BCLT, Berkeley Law

The EU data transfer regime has started out as a protection of fundamental privacy rights of individuals but is now becoming a tool in the EU’s ambition for digital sovereignty. Lokke will discuss why the EU’s digital sovereignty is under threat, what the chances are the EU-US Data Privacy Framework will be invalidated, how EU policy measures will facilitate open data spaces for AI innovation while ensuring EU sovereignty by introducing further transfer regimes (basically amounting to data localization requirements) and how Big Tech is responding with EU cloud boundaries. The session will end with recommendations for how to navigate this complex legal landscape. Don’t miss this excellent program!

2nd Annual BCLT Cybersecurity Lecture

$50.00
  • Instructor(s):  BCLT

Program occurred on March 6, 2025 Event Information | Agenda Cyber represents one of biggest challenges to national security and to the protection of fundamental rights. Intelligence agencies are tasked with protecting critical infrastructure, protecting government and business secrets, and with identifying and addressing misinformation. As nations have developed bulk intercept capabilities and offensive and defensive cyber practices, oversight must evolve to address these powerful tools. Traditional legislation is ill-fitted for low predictability and quickly changing dynamics inherently connected to cyber activities. Maintaining a proper balance between the interests of national security and the protection of fundamental rights is essential. An improved system of checks and balances requires a more normative approach where greater operational flexibility is counterbalanced by real-time and binding oversight. Drawing upon years of oversight of two of the most capable continental intelligence agencies, Nico van Eijk explains the effort to find such an improved system. This program has been approved for 0.75 General CLE Credit hours. Nico van Eijk recently served as Chair of the Review Committee on the Intelligence and Security Services (CTIVD), where he oversaw both the general and military intelligence services of The Netherlands. Previously van Eijk was Professor of Information Law and Director of the Institute for Information Law (IViR) at the University of Amsterdam.

Technology for Lawyers Workshop Part 1

FREE
  • Instructor(s):  BCLT

This two part CLE is designed to help you become a more efficient user of your computer and to learn the most important features of Microsoft Word for legal practice. Part one focuses on becoming a more efficient computer user. Topics include shortcuts and tricks to work faster and with less reliance on the mouse. It then explains how to find information that has disappeared from the web, how to do so called Google "hacking," and how to find cookies and web beacons on clients' websites. This part concludes with an exercise to create a proper Microsoft Word template for legal office memoranda. Part two principally deals with creating a proper template in Microsoft word for legal briefs. You'll learn how to use styles in Word to make document-wide edits, saving a lot of time. The session then turns to clever, programmatic techniques anyone can use to clean up a poorly-designed Word document. For instance, if you receive a Word document that has character, line-level, or inconsistent formatting, these techniques will show you how to correct the document quickly and create document-wide edits in seconds. Finally, this part makes an appeal to consider "data-centric" lawyering: the re-conception of legal practice around data instead of final reports (like memos and briefs). This last section explains how to structure data properly so that data can be used to generate reports. The payoff comes in techniques to deepen client engagement and to derive business intelligence from your firm's activities. This course does not offer CLE credit.
