Data collection and analysis is becoming easier, but privacy regulators are becoming stricter. As a result, privacy issues are becoming ever more prominent when developing software. Making your software privacy-compliant from the start is the best way to avoid legal troubles later on. In this talk, Ot van Daalen, founder of the privacy law boutique Digital Defence and a former programmer himself, will guide you through the privacy maze. He will give practical tips on how to design privacy-compliant software, and how to best make your case to the legal department.
