The EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is often cited as the world's toughest data protection law. South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) is similar to the GDPR in many ways. Both laws provide rules and principles about the processing of personal data, stipulate the information that must be provided to data subjects, and impose new requirements for data breach reporting.

But the two laws are far from identical. PrivSec South Africa will explore how the GDPR and the POPIA intersect, how they differ, and what extra steps you must take to bring your GDPR-compliant organization in line with South African law.

We'd like to invite yourself and colleagues to attend PrivSec South Africa and gain access to the full programme of talks, training and debates all free of charge - with up to 8 CPD (CPE) points available.
