I have the pleasure to invite you to the next European Parliament Privacy Platform on Thursday 9 November 2017, 12h30-13h45, in the Square Meeting Center in Brussels. A lunch will be served after the event.

The theme of this edition's Privacy Platform is “Track or Treat!" Behavioural targeting and online privacy.’ The panel will discuss the state-of-play of the ePrivacy Regulation and its likely consequences for online behavioural targeting and advertising. Why does the EU need a new regulation regarding online privacy? Which balance to strike between user friendliness and privacy protection? How will publishers be impacted by the new rules? These questions will be addressed in this Privacy Platform's panel from a policy, academic and business perspective.
