Conference Description
Objective
This seminar will investigate how manipulative design practices, often referred to as dark patterns, threaten core principles of data protection law: transparency, informed consent, fairness, and autonomy. These techniques can exploit users’ cognitive biases or personal data to push them toward decisions they might not otherwise make.
Key topics
- Technology as an enabler of GDPR and AI Act compliance;
- Practical use cases of PETs, automation and AI tools;
- Regulatory expectations and AI auditing approaches;
- Bridging law and practice through innovation.
Who should attend?
Lawyers in private practice, data protection and IT lawyers, in-house counsel, EU and national civil servants, DPOs and compliance officers, regulators and policy advisors, academics and researchers.
