In this week’s episode we are excited to have Tobias Bräutigam join us for a discussion on how companies are dealing with the Schrems II decision in practice.

You can find Tobias on Twitter with the handle @PrivacyFin. In addition to our discussion on Schrems II we’re diving deep on the Deutsche Wohnen case – a puzzling court decision where the Berlin data protection authority’s fine of 14.5 million euros on the company was revoked due to procedural issues.
