Digital chat, data protection

28th January 2022

Digital transformation is constantly coming up in the discussion, but what does it really mean and what does it have to do with everyday life in Iceland?

Digital Chat

In the Digital Chat, we aim to address issues and questions that often come up in general discussions regarding digital transformation with the aim of guiding and putting things into human language if possible.

The digital transformation is indeed as much about people as it is about technology, and therefore nothing is more important than for people to understand and trust digital services. This will result in simplifying the lives of us all as well as opening our eyes to the opportunities of digital transformation in the course of our lives and work . . . and the positive environmental impact is yet to be covered.

In celebration of the International Day for Data Protection, we shall adopt the first chat on Data Protection. In order to answer various thoughts regarding data protection, Atli Stefán Yngvason and Vigdís Eva Líndal are the first guests of the Digital chat.

Atli Stefán Yngvason is from the information technology company Koala and Vigdís Eva Líndal, director of foreign cooperation and education at the Data Protection Authority.

Digital Iceland produces the Digital Chat and welcomes comments and suggestions for further discussion topics to island@island.is.

The chat is in Icelandic.
