Daniel Johnson, partner and co-founder will be guiding you through key aspects of the regulation and how GDPR impacts hoteliers who either solilcit bookings from Europe-based persons (“data subjects”) or who monitor their behavior. 

 

The coming enforcement of Europe’s data protection law, demands that both hoteliers and their information system partners take a hard look at how guest data is processed. Roles determine responsibilities. Responsibilities convey obligations. Failures to meet obligations carry consequences.

 

Earlier this month, Johnson co-chaired HTNG’s GDPR Work Group consisting of around 50 industry colleagues to produce a hospitality-focused GDPR white paper with an accompanying self-assessment tool. These materials help the industry prepare for the GDPR. Also, as a member of the HFTP GDPR HDPO Task Force, Johnson helped architect hotel guest data flow charts. This set of flowcharts illustrate data flow scenarios, involving parties providing hospitality services, steps of the guest journey and more. 

 

The webinars are scheduled for two sessions daily on April 4, 17 and 18 with times for both Eastern Standard Time and Central European Time. You can access specific times and register for webinars by going to www.venzagroup.com/event/. All webinars will have a question and answer session at the end to help clarify any of the material covered. No two webinar sessions will be identical, so feel free to sign up for multiple sessions.
