Webinar | Signing data processing agreements quickly | Members and Public

In today’s fast-paced business environment, signing data processing agreements (DPAs) quickly is essential. Time is of the essence when establishing data processing relationships, and efficiently finalising DPAs can give your organisation a competitive edge while ensuring compliance with strict data protection laws.

A DPA is a written agreement that governs the relationship between organisations in a data processing chain, usually between a controller (responsible party in South Africa) and a processor (operator in South Africa). Having a DPA in place is not only a legal requirement under most data protection laws but also sets clear expectations and action plans between parties on critical issues like cross-border data transfers, information security, and more.

With the evolving nature of DPAs in the global data protection landscape and significant developments emerging from Europe and beyond, it’s crucial to streamline the process of drafting and signing these agreements.

• Understand the legal rules that regulate your data processing agreements and how to expedite the signing process by gaining insights into the global data privacy landscape.
