Transatlantic Briefing: What U.S. Privacy Pros Need to Know About GDPR Simplification
The European Commission has issued its proposed Digital Omnibus package, introducing targeted amendments to the GDPR as part of its broader Digital Simplification Agenda, alongside the finalized GDPR Procedural Regulation. These measures aim to streamline GDPR obligations, reduce administrative burdens, and clarify core concepts, while also introducing binding timelines and harmonized rules for handling cross-border cases. They mark a significant evolution in the EU privacy framework, designed to make European data protection more effective for the AI age, and enforcement faster and more predictable but also inviting controversy from different stakeholders. As the Digital Ombnibus package moves through the EU legislative process, understanding these developments is critical for Transatlantic privacy pros as “simplification” reshapes compliance strategies, enforcement dynamics, and cross-border cooperation.
This virtual session will begin with a briefing tailored for U.S.-based privacy professionals, outlining the proposed GDPR simplification measures and their practical impact on compliance requirements, risk, and enforcement. A fireside chat will follow, exploring the broader forces behind these reforms—internal EU dynamics, external pressures, stakeholder concerns—and what they signal for the future of privacy GDPR compliance and digital governance.
