The aim of the session is raising awareness among the privacy community of the upcoming regulation on political advertising in the EU for the implications that it has for the regulation of behavioural advertising beyond political advertising and for the regulation of political campaigning online globally. The session will start with brief presentations by regulators, legislators and civil society representatives working on the file and be followed by a discussion fed primarily by questions from the audience.
- What is the position of the European Parliament on personal data and political advertising and which are the assumptions underpinning it?
- How do rules that restrict processing of personal data interplay with rules on the transparency of political advertising?
- How will rules on personal data in this regulation relate to the DSA and the GDPR, as well as to future EU regulations?
- How to simultaneously protect freedom of expression and privacy in political advertising?
