On Tuesday, December 3, we hosted a session exploring the intersection of privacy and drone technology. Whether you attended or couldn't make it, we're excited to share the key highlights from the discussion. We covered essential privacy concerns, regulatory challenges, and emerging trends that are shaping the future of drone technology across industries.

• Where we are and what’s next for drones and aviation: How drones are transforming the industry, we’ll highlight real-world examples that demonstrate their impact and diverse applications across industries.
• Privacy implications and regulatory landscape: Key privacy considerations when utilizing drone technology, including PIPEDA and Quebec-specific requirements. Learn how these rules impact the collection, use and retention of personal information and compliance in Canada.
• Balancing surveillance and privacy: Exploring the implications of using drones in the workplace and the privacy considerations that come with it.
• Emerging regulatory trends: A forward-looking perspective on upcoming regulatory trends and their potential impact on privacy requirements and drone usage across various industries.

We hope the session provided valuable guidance on navigating privacy and regulatory issues, particularly in sectors like energy, where drone technology is revolutionizing operations.
