The People’s Republic of China (PRC) enacted a comprehensive data privacy law called the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) in November 2021. This law adds to an already complex data privacy framework in the PRC, which also includes the Regulation of Human Genetic Resources, the Biosecurity Law of the PRC and the Data Security Law of the PRC. This webinar will focus on key implications of the PIPL and these other PRC laws for the sharing of clinical trials data generated in the PRC for further research purposes. The speakers will also make comparisons between PIPL and the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), another global privacy law that has had a significant impact on the sharing of clinical trial data.

Learning objectives for this session include:
• Understand the basics of PIPL
• Understand how PIPL affects sharing of clinical trials data across international borders
• Understand key differences between PIPL and GDPR

Speakers:
• Rebecca Li, Vivli
• David Peloquin, Ropes & Gray
• Katherine Wang, Ropes & Gray

This webinar is intended for organizations and individuals that share data and will be particularly useful for those who focus on data privacy.
