Rebeka dr. Balogh’s Post

Today, I had the opportunity to attend the international conference marking the 30th anniversary of Hungary’s institutional system of information rights. The morning sessions offered an international perspective, featuring insightful contributions from the heads of data protection authorities across neighboring countries. Zdravko Vukić, Deputy Chair of the EDPB, gave an engaging talk on the Board’s role in cross-border cooperation and introduced “Olivia” – a virtual teacher and assistant that provides learning modules on personal data protection and helps organizations create internal documents to demonstrate compliance. In the afternoon, the focus shifted to Hungary-specific topics, with valuable reflections on the past three decades and the future challenges of information rights in the country. Thank you to NAIH for organising the event and to all presenters for their engaging and informative contributions.
