Internet Vikings has gained a lot of momentum in organizing and holding educational webinars which have already become a thing among iGaming professionals. Almost immediately, after successful completion of their previous webinar, the company started preparing for their next event entitled 'The new era of transferring data. Live with Max Schrems.’
As can be seen from the title the keynote speaker of the webinar is Mr Maximilian Schrems, an Austrian lawyer, author and privacy activist. He became known for campaigns against Facebook for its privacy violations. Most recently his name started to be associated with the ruling of the European Court of Justice which invalidated the Privacy Shield framework as not providing adequate protection for data transfers.
This judgement creates issues in the field of data protection for European companies including iGaming operators, who are using services of the US registered cloud service providers.
