🔐 The European Center for Certification and Privacy (ECCP) and Europrivacy are proud to support the Privacy Symposium, contributing to a global platform for dialogue on data governance, regulatory compliance, and emerging technologies.  

📍 Taking place in Venice, Italy, from April 20 to 24, 2026, the Privacy Symposium offers a comprehensive program designed to connect experts, regulators, and industry to advance international cooperation and knowledge-sharing. 

Join us at the Privacy Symposium to explore how certification can become your strongest business asset, not just a compliance checkbox. This year’s program goes beyond theory, focusing on how organizations can operationalize certification to: 

• Build trust at scale
• Enable cross-border data flows
• Strengthen accountability
• Unlock tangible business value

🌍 Europrivacy, the European Data Protection Seal approved by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB), continues to lead this transformation, turning #GDPR requirements into practical criteria to verify and value your compliance.
