Anti-piracy strategies are becoming increasingly important to software vendors looking
for additional ways of maximizing their revenues. As vendors begin exploring the
benefits of automatic software auditing, they also need to understand the interplay
with EU privacy and data protection regulations to maximize the effectiveness of
their efforts.
Join us for a free webinar on Thursday, April 16, and hear attorney Alexander Duisberg,
partner at international commercial law firm Bird & Bird and head of the German
IT Commercial and Outsourcing practice group, discuss the balance between EU Privacy
Regulations and automatic software auditing.
V.i. Labs' Victor DeMarines shows you how software vendors are taking a new approach
to software piracy that creates actionable leads for their legal or sales
teams and demonstrates how CodeArmor® Intelligence can tell you exactly who is
using your software illegally.
Watch this webcast and you will learn:
- Legal issues around automatic software auditing in the EU
- The types of data you can collect and those you must avoid collecting (and which
geographies are more sensitive than others)
- How to manage privacy issues in a cross-border environment
- How software vendors have evolved their anti-piracy approaches to recover revenue
Who should attend:
- General counsel
- Compliance officers
- Directors or VPs of Software Development/Engineering, Product Management, and Software
Licensing
- CTOs
