The EU General Data Protection Regulation: What You Need to Know

Event | 05.12.17, 12:30 PM UTC - 5:30 PM UTC

Address

Crowell & Moring
Rue Joseph Stevens 7, 1000 Brussels, Belgium

The European Regulation on “the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data” (also known as the "GDPR") will be applicable in all EU Member States from May 25, 2018.


The GDPR is not only important for businesses that are established in Europe, it also affects businesses that do not have a European presence but offer goods or services to individuals in Europe or monitor the behavior of those individuals. This is why the Europe India Chamber of Commerce and the Embassy of India have joint forces with Tata Consultancy Services and Crowell & Moring in order to inform Indian companies doing business in Europe about these major developments.


This half-day seminar will take a practical approach to GDPR compliance, to help businesses understand their increased obligations as data controllers and processors and the changes they will need to make to their data protection practices so as to ensure that their processes, policies and contracts conform to the GDPR.


This event is organized by TATA Consultancy Services and Crowell & Moring.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
