The European Law Team of the University of Vienna, as part of the EU Future Talks, will host an online discussion on the topic
Non-Material Damages for GDPR Violations: Quo Vadis Österreichische Post ?
Should non-material damages be awarded on the basis of the GDPR, even if the claimant has suffered a mere discomfort? This question lies at the heart of the Österreichische Post case (C-300/21), for which the ruling is expected to be published on May 4, 2023.
Data protection experts and lawyers involved in pending GDPR-proceedings will discuss the reasoning and consequences of the ECJ’s judgment. The speakers are:
- Paul Nemitz - Principal Adviser on Digital Transition, EU-Commission (DG Justice & Consumers)
- Petra Leupold - Lawyer at VKI, Honorary Board Member, NOYB
- Martin Mekat - Partner at Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer
- Peter Hense - Partner at Spirit Legal
The event takes place on Monday, May 15, 2023 at 12:30 pm and can be streamed LIVE on YouTube @eulawunivie.
Participation is free and possible without registration.
