The UK and EU approach to regulating AI in FRTs
Matt Quezada looks at the distinctions between the approaches of the EU and UK to regulating AI in facial recognition technologies.
More
Facial recognition technology, biometrics and monitoring
A raft of regulation surrounds financial data collection and sharing in the EU and UK, creating a complex environment for financial companies. There is only more to come, particularly from the EU which is focused on facilitating sharing financial data to foster innovation and benefit consumers. We look at some of the current hot topics involving financial data including digital IDs and embedded finance, and at incoming legislation including DORA, the Data Act, and FIDA. We also review the UK and EU framework around financial data incident management and reporting.

Managing HR data is an ongoing exercise for employers.

MoreData sharing
Data exports continue to be high on the agenda but data sharing (of personal and non-personal data) is being looked at much more widely by the EU and the UK in the context of providing individuals with control over their data, opening up the potential of big data, and breaking down barriers to competition. We look at incoming EU legislation relating to data sharing with particular focus on the draft Data Act, as well as at the ICO's Code of Practice on Data Sharing, Privacy Shield 2.0 and data sharing requirements for the UK's Pensions Dashboard.
MoreHealth data – getting the right balance between innovation and data protection
Personal health data attracts special protection but also benefits from exemptions under UK and EU data protection law. Have legislators and regulators got the balance between innovation and privacy right or do the rules overly restrict advances in healthcare provision and research?

We look at the UK's implementation of the GDPR journalistic exemption, at the ICO's recently published draft Code of Practice on journalism, the use of data protection law in media cases, and at the tensions between the right to privacy and to freedom of expression.
