Product Details
U.S.-based companies routinely collect and process personal data of EU-based individuals as part of their operations.
Without a working knowledge of EU privacy laws and regulations, you run the risk of not being compliant.
The broad requirements of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies to all industries, must be reconciled with the specific provisions of the EU’s Clinical Trial Regulation (CTR).
Failure to comply with the GDPR comes with a heavy price tag — about $126 million in fines were collected in 2019. A single data breach could bankrupt your trial or even your entire organization.
Data Privacy in the EU: A Guide for Clinical Trial Sponsors and Sites explains how the GDPR and CTR overlap and how they compare to U.S. regulations, what data protection principles trials must follow to ensure compliance, and what requirements the EU rules place on the collection and processing of personal health information (PHI). The report also covers the rights of EU citizens under the GDPR, the need for a data protection officer (DPO) and what the DPO does, and how to conduct a privacy impact assessment.
