Prof. Dr Joachim Schrey

Are the GDPR rules effective in being an actual deterrent with regard to data abuse? What sanctions are available to data protection authorities according to the GDPR? Do they often impose sanctions? What remedies exist for data controllers to successfully combat those fines? What costs are involved in such litigations and who bears the expenses? How likely are the chances for a successful outcome for each of the respective parties?

In her Duet interview with Prof. Dr Joachim Schrey, an authority on data protection, Dr Caldarola, herself a noted legal expert on the various ramifications involved in data processing, discusses the various options available to both data protection authorities and data controllers in a dispute involving data abuse.

Has that label only become a catchy new adver­tis­ing slo­gan for com­pa­nies to show­case their sup­pos­ed­ly inno­v­a­tive pow­er? How much do com­pa­nies real­ly earn or save with data? How do the earn­ings rate in rela­tion to the expens­es for data pro­tec­tion (GDPR), infor­ma­tion secu­ri­ty as well as for the inevitable IT-infrastructure?

In her Duet inter­view with Richard Heil­er Martínez, cor­po­rate finance spe­cial­ist, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of the recent book Big Data and Law, dis­cuss­es the bot­tom line on the cor­po­rate earn­ings from Big Data.
