CBS Law Professor Jan Trzaskowski has just published the book ‘YOUR PRIVACY IS IMPORTANT TO US! – Restoring Human Dignity in Data-Driven Marketing’ that explores the application of EU consumer law—including data protection law and other fundamental rights—to data-driven business models that infringe on human agency, social cohesion and democratic debate.

The aim of this event is to present and discuss the findings of the book, including the potential for cross-fertilisation between data protection law, marketing law and fundamental rights. The book suggests how our current legal framework can be informed by psychological, technological and societal perspectives to curb predatory business models of surveillance capitalism.

In the book, the author argues that ‘paying with personal data’ is a misleading framing when, in fact, we pay with attention and agency—which are both scarcer and more precious than personal data and are also important in social and societal contexts. A three-tiered model of information asymmetry is introduced to illustrate why information does not ensure transparency, which is a prerequisite for user empowerment.
