1 OCT. 2026 · Privacy, security, and compliance teams often approach the business separately, with overlapping requirements and duplicated assessments. The result is fatigue, not alignment.
In this episode, Orla Dormer speaks with Kimberly Lancaster, Founder and CEO of Avalon Privacy and Compliance, about how she moved from telling teams what to do to building real partnerships. Kimberly explains why tying all three functions to business goals matters, how a single set of requirements drives faster adoption, and why small teams should build the fort together rather than defend their own side. A practical conversation on listening first, reducing duplicated effort, and making privacy a shared responsibility across the organisation.
22 SEP. 2026 · Too many stakeholders treat data privacy as a regulatory checkbox — tick it, forget it, move on.
Orla Dormer talks with Vicky Owens, Data and Digital Senior Counsel at SkyShowtime, about why that mindset fails and how to fix it. Vicky shares why the classic "fines and reputational risk" pitch often doesn't land, and how reframing privacy around return on investment — better data, monetisation, competitive edge — changes the conversation. She also shares a real example: how spotting a spike in incidents among contractors led to a training fix that cut incidents by 45%.

14 SEP. 2026 · New cybersecurity regulation like NIS2 is landing differently in every EU country — and a single incident can now trigger separate reports under multiple frameworks.
Francisco Matos, Compliance Director at Legora and former Associate General Counsel for Cybersecurity Law at Meta, joins Orla Dormer to explain how his team turned that fragmentation into a proactive regulator engagement strategy: cold outreach, a focused paper that got them invited to present at ENISA in Amsterdam, and lessons on building trust with regulators before you need them. 📌 Subscribe for more real-world conversations on privacy operations, AI governance, and scaling compliance without the noise.

3 SEP. 2026 · Orla Dorner is joined by Monika Tomczak-Górlikowska, Group Head of Privacy, Digital & AI Governance at Prosus, to talk about building an agentic AI governance framework at scale.
They discuss why traditional governance controls aren't enough once anyone in an organisation can build an AI agent, how to shift from one-off assessments to continuous risk monitoring, and why staying close to high-risk teams like HR and finance is critical as adoption accelerates.

6 AGO. 2026 · Keeping a processor Record of Processing Activities up to date is one of the least glamorous—but most critical—operational challenges in privacy.
In this episode, Orla Dormer is joined by Adrien Hug-Korda, European Data Protection Board Expert and former Privacy Director at Contentsquare, to discuss how privacy teams can automate processor RoPAs, manage large-scale processing operations, and build compliance processes that continue working as organisations grow.
Adrien shares practical lessons from the digital marketing industry, explains how to avoid creating compliance processes that rely on constant manual effort, discusses handling DSRs in cookie-based environments, and offers advice on showing the business value of privacy programmes to leadership.

6 AGO. 2026 · What does practical AI governance actually look like day to day in a high-growth FinTech environment?
In this episode of Practical Privacy, Orla Dormer speaks with Taylor Galusha, Lead Privacy and AI Counsel at Chime, about operationalising AI governance through scalable AI vendor assessments.
Taylor explains why manual reviews are difficult to sustain, how robust playbooks can create consistency, and how AI can support the first draft of vendor assessment reviews when given clear guidance, examples, and logic trees.
This episode explores how privacy and AI governance teams can move faster, escalate risks more clearly, and build stronger documentation — without removing human judgement from the final decision. 📌 Subscribe for more real-world conversations on privacy operations, AI governance, and scaling compliance without the noise.

2 JUL. 2026 · Most organisations have privacy policies. Far fewer have privacy capabilities that actually scale.
In this episode, Cristina Costache, DPO & CISO at Noventiq, explores one of the most persistent challenges facing privacy teams: transforming compliance from a documentation exercise into an operational capability embedded within the organisation. 📌 Subscribe for more real-world conversations on privacy operations, AI governance, and scaling compliance without the noise.

23 JUN. 2026 · How do you complete privacy documentation across hundreds of teams and more than 1,000 applications without overwhelming the business? In this episode of Practical Privacy, Orla Dormer is joined by Aaron Mendelsohn, Director and Senior Privacy Officer at The LEGO Group, to discuss how his team rebuilt and scaled privacy documentation across a large global organisation.
Aaron explains how they combined privacy technology, risk-based prioritisation, and extensive team enablement to successfully document over 1,000 applications within a 12-month period. He also shares why privacy professionals need to move beyond policy writing and spend more time understanding how product and engineering teams actually work.
This episode covers:
• Scaling ROPAs, PIAs and privacy documentation programmes
• Using risk-based approaches to focus effort where it matters most
• The role of change management in privacy success
• Building stronger relationships with internal stakeholders
• Creating sustainable compliance processes that teams will actually use
• Future opportunities to combine privacy, AI and broader compliance assessments

11 JUN. 2026 · In this episode of Practical Privacy, Orla Dormer is joined by Fred Descloux, privacy, security, and governance leader, to discuss how organisations can align engineering, security, privacy, and compliance in fast-moving environments where execution speed is critical. Drawing on his experience in highly regulated industries, Fred shares why traditional compliance approaches often create friction, bottlenecks, and what he describes as "compliance theatre"—generating documentation without meaningfully reducing risk.
Together they explore how to:
• Embed privacy and security directly into engineering workflows
• Move away from compliance as a gatekeeping function
• Focus on outcomes rather than perfection
• Build scalable operating models that support growth
• Make privacy and security everyone's responsibility
• Avoid creating bottlenecks while maintaining strong controls
• Prepare for audits through operational excellence rather than audit-driven processes
• Balance business agility with regulatory expectationsA practical conversation for privacy professionals, security leaders, compliance teams, and anyone trying to support innovation without compromising governance.

2 JUN. 2026 · Traditional privacy teams were never designed for agile digital transformation.
In this episode of Practical Privacy, Orla Dormer speaks with Naureen Hussain, Founder of Luminate Advisers and former DPO at Virgin Media, about how privacy leaders can support rapid digital transformation without compromising compliance or creating unacceptable risks.
Naureen shares why adding more privacy resources initially failed, how her team embedded into product and digital workflows, and why adopting a product mindset fundamentally changed the way the privacy function operated. The conversation explores cross-functional collaboration, agile delivery, privacy by design, and the importance of experimentation and user-centric compliance processes. 📌 Subscribe for more real-world conversations on privacy operations, AI governance, and scaling compliance without the noise.
