The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) is organising a remote stakeholder event aimed at collecting stakeholders’ input in the context of upcoming guidelines on the application of data protection legislation in the context of ‘Consent or Pay’ models. The event will take place on 18 November 2024 from 10.00 to 16.00 CET (exact time to be confirmed).
The aim of the event is to collect relevant insights from organisations that have expertise in ‘Consent or Pay’ models, which require data subjects to choose between consenting to processing of personal data for a specified purpose or paying a fee. This event will contribute to the EDPB’s ongoing work on guidelines on ‘Consent or Pay’ models. These guidelines are a continuation of the EDPB Opinion 08/2024, which addressed the ‘Consent or Pay’ model in the context of large online platforms. The guidelines will have a broader scope of application.
Individuals representing European sector associations, organisations or NGOs and individual companies, law firms or academics are invited to take part in this event (one participant per organisation). A limited number of participants will be allowed to take part, to permit a meaningful discussion in a remote setting. The EDPB encourages all organisations interested in this matter to delegate a representative with technical knowledge of this topic.
Do you wish to participate to make your voice heard? Stay tuned:
The EDPB will launch a call for expression of interest to participate in the EDPB’s stakeholder event on ‘Consent or Pay’ on 12 September at 10.00 (Brussels time).
The call will be closed as soon as a sufficiently high number of applicants is reached with a view to ensuring the participation of a maximum number of stakeholders.
The call will be launched on the EDPB website.
