Data ethics & sustainability as a top priority in 2022
1 March 2022
13:00 – 17:30 EET
Data governance and privacy raise a lot of ethical issues. Data ethics has become an even more pressing issue for companies in recent years. Mainly due to data sprawl, data ethics is a swiftly emerging field. While the rewards of utilizing data are apparent, so are the risks of abusing or losing the data. Failure to follow data ethically can have detrimental effects and lead to a loss of trust in people or organizations.
While many data professionals follow their ethical approach, there’s no single rule defining how ethics behave in the data territory. Much remains to be learned, discussed and improved.
4 KEY QUESTIONS:
- Ethical data management = GDPR compliant data management?
Or maybe the other way round? - GDPR compliant data management = Ethical data management?
- Ethical data management = sustainable data management?
Or maybe the other way round? - Sustainable data management = ethical data management?
We will discuss two conflicting approaches:
GDPR - UP Data privacy and GDPR – as a tool for ethical data governance and sustainable privacy management:
Data minimization and accountability, as key requirements of sustainable and ethical data management;
AI tools for ethical data governance;
Is ethical data protection only about perfect GDPR compliance? Which compliance level may also lead to ethical data management?
Costs of GDPR compliance – as a threat to sustainability:
Cookie-bars and carbon footprint;
Is GDPR fostering sustainable data management or vice-versa, itself becomes an excessive burden?
At which point GDPR compliance become unsustainable and unethical (examples of DSRs)?
How easily AI may become unethical?
Zero-party data – escape from the GDPR rules?
