Information technology, privacy and data protection
Technology and digitalisation are drivers of the economy and shape our everyday life. Our expertise covers all legal aspects in the fields of IT, technology and data protection. We advise and assist clients in the procurement of ICT goods and services, draft and negotiate contracts for the development, implementation, licensing and maintenance of software and for long-term outsourcing projects. We are regularly retained to assess the legal situation and work on solutions when an IT project is in trouble. We advise on the legal requirements for the use of cloud services and review and draft the respective contracts.
Moreover, we have specific expertise in data protection law. We advise clients in connection with the lawful processing and use of personal data, data transfers abroad, misuse of data and their prevention, and notifications to the supervisory authorities. We draft privacy policies, review and draft contracts for data processing by a processor.
