Denise Almeida
I am a privacy, policy and regulation professional, currently working on the future of decentralised communication at Element as a DPO and Head of Policy and Compliance. Before joining Element in May 2020, I was a Senior Data Protection Officer for a multinational digital transformation and technology group, having joined in early 2018, a few months before the GDPR enforcement date.
Alongside work I am also in the final stages of writing my PhD thesis on technology workers attitudes and behaviours towards change, particularly in the context of privacy and information management. My main research interests are centred on privacy, change, human rights, privilege and power, ethics, and algorithmic accountability, particularly around how these areas interact with different social, demographic and contextual factors.
