Data privacy
Businesses today collect and store an increasing amount of data and information about their clients, employees and other third party natural persons. Processing such a volume of data has led to innovative methods being devised so that the data generated may be monetised as effectively as possible. This is greatly facilitated by the data mining and analytics software tools which are now widely available to market players.
At the same time, these opportunities have attracted the attention of the regulatory bodies, authorities and indeed the data subjects themselves, in light of which the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has, since May 2018, imposed a number of new requirements on those companies that provide services to EU nationals and within that context use clients’ personal data.
Our attorneys are highly experienced in the field of data privacy and information security, so we can easily assist you in gaining an understanding of the provisions of the data privacy regulations which apply to you, and furthermore enable you to lawfully utilise and unlock the potential in the valauble data assets you have available.
We also advise on transferring data outside of the EU, drawing up model agreements and mandatory corporate governance regulations, as well as assisting in drafting and developing codes of conduct for players in different sectors of industry.
Our comprehensive data privacy compliance audit programme is a highly effective support tool in meeting strict GDPR requirements. We deliver in-house training as an integral component of our audit programme and in the course of the follow-up process gladly collaborate with you on incorporating lawful data management and data processing partnerships, i.e. a lawful data privacy policy, into your business’ daily operation.
