In this era of the Internet of Things (IoT), we are rarely without some kind of smart device and everything we do is shaped by a digital economy. We can track our health, be notified when we need milk and control our home heating from anywhere. Smart devices have changed the way we work and live and this societal impact has become essential to our day to day operations. The development and success of this type of technology relies heavily on data and data sharing, so much so, that data protection safeguards have become paramount to individual rights.

In this article, we take a closer look at connected vehicles, the recently adopted European Data Protection Board (EDPB) guidelines (the “guidelines”) and also take a look at a use case focusing on telematics and analytics for usage-based insurance.
