@LauraLinkomies @privacylaws 24 out of 32 Caribbean jurisdictions have data protection laws. We have speakers from #Bermuda, #Barbados, #Bahamas and #Jamaica. Regional cooperation has many benefits. Could this session be the starting point for a privacy law Caribbean region conference?

As the use of #biometric technologies on mobile devices is becoming increasingly common, and biometric recognition is used across many sectors, the #ICO considers that it needs to clarify the terminology in use and issue specific #dataprotection guidance

@ColinBennett0 From first meeting him in the 1980s, David was always generous with his time and expertise providing me and PL&B with encouragement across the decades and in many countries. His sharp observations on the world of privacy were always a joy. We loved his wry sense of humour.

[Colin Bennett @ColinBennett0]

So saddened to report the passing of my dear friend and mentor, David Flaherty, one of the pioneers of international data protection: the first privacy commissioner of BC; educator; writer; philanthropist; privacy advocate. His contributions will be lasting and immense.
