Overview

Transferring data overseas is a legal minefield, but sometimes an absolute necessity for organisations who need to share date, whether that be criminal or patient records.

By fully immersing yourself with the regulatory framework you can ensure you are fully compliant.

Attend our Understanding International Data Transfer course to better navigate through the complex legalities of international data transfers.

Learn how to make restricted transfers and deploy other transfer mechanisms. Gain the tools you need to carry out a transfer risk assessment to better secure data privacy.

Leave the day with an international data transfer toolkit to use within your organisation.
