Anecdotal…
Last year in the US
• Privacy budget sat with CPO/Legal
• Service budget, less than $100K
• No privacy budget with functional
owners
• Priorities: Assessments, Gap
Analysis, Data Mapping
• Exceptions: Tech companies with
global footprint (e.g. Uber, Apple,
Google, …)
Europe > 1 year ahead of US
This year
• Functional owners now own the
problem
• Allocated technology budgets.
• Priorities: fixing the data
“plumbing” (fundamentals) – little
retooling
• No company considers itself
“ready” by May – 2/3 year
budgeting outlook (this is not
Y2K).

Anecdotal…
• Top Sectors: Financial Services, Healthcare
- Additional US Sectors: Large/Global Online, SaaS players

- More flexible – can act but not sure what to do, so wait and see…
- Rise of the GDPR trolls
- Existential threat for Ad/MarTech?
• Limited platform tech updates from tech vendors
• No GDPR tech sector emerged, no specific VC focus
- Privitar: 16M round, Aircloak, 1.3M round

10. Case Study:
Aircloak Introduction Deck CONFIDENTIAL 10
Situation
•TeamBank (2nd largest bank in Germany) collects 1st and 2nd party financial
transaction data. Wants to better use data analytics to improve the quality of its
service and customer targeting – in a GDPR compliant way!
Complication
•Internal approval process for (exploratory) data analysis was complex and slow
(weeks). Once approved, the data pseudonymization by a 3rd party vendor took
another 1-2 weeks.
•Some analysis was impossible as much of the customer intelligence resides in
free text fields à non-compliant analytics
Solution
•With Aircloak the full data is accessible in real-time for analysis, yet individuals’
privacy fully protected by design
•TeamBank’s approval process is now instant for analysis done through Aircloak,
giving stakeholders full freedom to perform customer analytics.
•Exploring sharing data beyond internal stakeholders, extend to DZ Bank group
Why Aircloak?
“Aircloak provides instant
compliance, also when business
conditions change – no need for
lengthy case-by-case audits.
Just run any analysis you need to
and let Aircloak Insights
automatically take care of privacy.”
11. Case Study: Global Airline
Situation: Create better travel recommendations for Airline’s
customers
Complication: Privacy regulations prevent using 2nd party
customer data in machine learning predictive analytics
Using anonymized data presents compliance/risk challenges
and reduces the quality of the analytics too much
Solution: Using the Aircloak API the company is able to
implement its selected predictive analytics methods using
anonymized query results
The company can now make improved travel
recommendations, increasing frequency of purchased and
basket sizes.
