IAPP Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe (CIPP/E) Audio Study Guide & Podcasts

Andrew and Ava unpack consent as a lawful basis and the sneaky reality of anonymisation and re-identification—plus the exam traps: pre-ticked boxes, withdrawal confusion, and the GDPR’s contextual “means reasonably likely” test.

Andrew and Ava untangle two accountability favorites on the CIPP/E: picking lawful bases the *right* way (Art. 6 + Art. 9) and doing DPIAs *before* things catch fire. Expect exam traps, balancing tests, and the kind of emotional damage only GDPR multiple-choice can deliver.

Andrew and Ava tackle the CIPP/E’s favorite headache: why law-enforcement data lives under the LED (not GDPR), why “free movement” doesn’t mean “YOLO transfers,” and why processors absolutely can get fined. Plus: foreign warrants, domestic review, and the exam’s obsession with “who decided what.”

Andrew and Ava tackle GDPR’s most exam-bait topics: Special Categories (Art. 9), criminal convictions (Art. 10), and the Purpose Limitation / Article 6(4) compatibility check. Expect real talk, traps, and the kind of humor you earn after your third practice exam.

Andrew drags Ava through two classic CIPP/E brain-melters: Convention 108+ (yes, it’s binding and yes, it covers public authorities and law enforcement) and how CJEU case law carries from the Directive era into the GDPR without becoming a copy-paste trap.
