On 18 January 2016 the Max Planck Institute Luxembourg will host the third meeting of the ILA Committee on the Protection of Privacy in Private International and Procedural Law. On that occasion the Committee members will convene to examine, inter alia, jurisdiction in privacy litigation, especially in light of the recent case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and national courts. Recent European case-law and efforts towards a global solution on the circulation of judgments in civil and commercial matters, including defamation, will be addressed. Finally, the regulatory environment of data protection and data protection agencies will be discussed.

Participation in this event is by invitation only.
