Data Protection team
Navigating the data flow
Data is at the heart of our clients’ businesses. Our patent attorneys work with clients at the forefront of technological innovation, be they developing new medicines, wearables or other products where the use of personal data is important. The volume and richness of data are key drivers for innovation in these and other areas. Many of our clients are multi-national, working across borders and with a need for the data they hold to be just as mobile.
Our team will help you navigate your data protection and data privacy obligations. We are able to deliver advice which is sensitive not only to the European position, but which takes into account the wider global considerations.
Recently we have advised one of our major pharmaceutical clients on its privacy policy and opt-in language for a product website. A leading health charity sought our advice regarding its responses to data subject access requests. We’ve drafted agreements connected to the use of personal data, including data processing agreements, and advised clients on their notification and registration obligations. Another interesting recent project was advising on the data protection aspects of an online advisory board service.
