Data Compliance for Freelance Medical Writers
Thursday 18th June @ 13.00-14.00 CET
Vena Verga-Danemar, J.D., LL.M. (Tilburg), LL.M.-MAS (Geneva)
Freelance medical writers and communicators handle personal data in everyday freelance practice: in the tools they use, the documents they produce, and the business they run independently. Data protection obligations can arise in all three areas, but many freelancers have only limited visibility on where those obligations sit.
This webinar provides a practical overview of three commonly overlooked compliance areas in independent freelance practice: the data protection implications of everyday digital tools and client agreements, the personal data that can remain embedded in shared documents, and the obligations that apply to the freelancer’s own business data, separate from any client arrangement.
Key takeaways for participants
1. Understand the data protection implications of the digital tools used in freelance medical writing practice, and what client agreements should address in relation to those tools.
2. Recognise the main places where personal data can remain embedded in shared documents.
3. Distinguish between the obligations that apply when working under a client’s instructions and those that apply to the freelancer’s own business data
Level: Foundation
