Privacy and Data Protection
We partner with our clients to implement effective data protection practices, policies and procedures, whilst navigating the legal and regulatory challenges of privacy compliance.
We offer a global end-to-end service. Our legal experts advise on all aspects of privacy from individual rights, conducting privacy impact assessments and data transfers, through to helping our clients form compliance strategies and implementation of full scale privacy compliance programmes.
Data – a Strategic Asset
Data is at the heart of digital transformation. Its value as a strategic asset is being increasingly recognised, as organisations harness the value of their data to maximise efficiencies and reduce costs.
We pride ourselves on our depth of understanding of the legal, commercial and practical issues arising from investing in, or implementing, emerging tech and leveraging the value of data. This often involves providing practical, commercial legal advice on all data aspects arising from digital transformation projects, including AI and machine learning, facial recognition technology, augmented and virtual reality, IoT and blockchain.
Cyber Security
Our international team offers cyber risk, data breach and crisis management support.
Our multi-disciplinary team comprises experts in privacy, disputes, governance, regulation and reputation management. We partner with Ashurst Risk to offer holistic business solutions, and provide seamless legal and governance advice.
Immediate and effective response in the event of a cybersecurity incident or data breach is critical. We will manage the initial response and liaise with regulators on your behalf. We will work with you to minimise business disruption and reputational damage, mitigate risk and resolve any subsequent disputes.
We also work with our Ashurst Advance team who are process, design and digital professionals specialising in the rigorous execution of forensic investigations.
