EDPSReady for a take-off! 🛫
Today, trainees of #EDPS and #EDPB host the conference “Data takes flight: Navigating privacy at the airport” at the European Parliament.
@Supervisor welcomed the participants and opened the conference by setting the scene:
“Modern airports have become complex digital ecosystems. The goals of managing passenger flows, controlling borders and preventing crime are increasingly intertwined. Every journey generates data. Today, you will examine some of the most prominent examples: Passenger Name Records, Advance Passenger Information, biometric identifiers for identity verification, and data circulating across interconnected large-scale EU information systems.”
🗣️ His opening is followed by the keynote speaker Lynn Vleugels, DPO of #BrusselsAirport, who will take participants on a journey from booking to boarding sharing insights into data protection at the airport. The conference will host the Deputy Head of the Secretariat of #EDPB, Gwendal Le Grand whose takeaways will conclude the topic.
In the panel Vagelis Papakonstantinou #VUB, Stephanie M. #EDPB, Ana Regidor Bailly-Bailliere, #Amadeus, and Marco Stefan #EDPS, will discuss:
💡where our data travels every time we step onto a plane
💡the role of biometrics and other technologies
💡the implication of the interoperability between the Union's large-scale IT systems
💡as well as possible future developments
We are excited to welcome all participants! We are looking forward to having an interactive discussion with experts.
