Bio

Magdalena (Magda) Brewczynska is a PhD researcher at Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology, and Society (TILT). She holds an LL.M. (cum laude) in Law & Technology from Tilburg University (2018) and a Master’s degree in Law obtained at Jagiellonian University in Cracow (2015).

Her research interests lie primarily in the area of privacy, data protection and cybersecurity. In the PhD project, she examines the legal uncertainties arising from the existence of two distinct regimes for the protection of personal data, namely the general regime, governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the regime applicable to the processing of personal data by competent authorities for law enforcement purposes, regulated in the so-called Police Directive.
