Odia Kagan, Partner and Chair of GDPR Compliance & International Privacy

Franchise networks increasingly collect personal data, which has great value, but triggers questions about data privacy. Now, the world is divided between GDPR and non-GDPR countries. This session will explore the legal and technical challenges, costs and benefits associated with compliance in GDPR countries and non-GDPR countries. As the number of privacy laws has grown from about 20 to 100 in recent years, this panel intends to explore the existing practices. This panel will share about burning issues amongst which how to transfer data to non-GDPR-countries in compliance with GDPR, how to structure a GDPR-compliant data flow in master franchise structures, how to divide up responsibilities between franchisor, master franchisees, franchisees and the end customer, best practices and how to protect the data pertaining to the franchise networks.
