Privacy compliance is not only a legal obligation, it also provides strategic benefits. It can help you gain and maintain the trust of your customers, employees and partners, protect your reputation, strengthen your competitive position and increase your innovation potential. Our data and privacy lawyers will support you in realising these benefits by providing practical and solution-oriented advice on privacy, data protection and cybersecurity issues.
Our expertise
Technological developments and the almost infinite amount of data associated with them offer great opportunities. For growing numbers of organisations, their value is determined by their data. At the same time, this means that the importance of using and managing that data properly is crucial, especially with increasing and changing regulations. These regulations are no longer limited to personal data. Other company data and their use are also regulated.
With this, the risks have also increased. Non-compliance can have serious consequences for your organisation’s continuity and reputation. This means that data rather than value can also create liability. Our data and privacy experts will advise you proactively and pragmatically. This will keep you compliant with the changing and increasingly complex regulations in this field and allow you to unlock the value of data in a sustainable way.
Besides consulting, our multidisciplinary approach ensures that we can effectively and efficiently assist you in internal investigations and enforcement actions by regulators such as the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) and the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (Autoriteit Consument en Markt).
Our lawyers will also assist you in cybercrime, cybersecurity and data breach matters. We have extensive experience with cross-border data breaches, so we can quickly and effectively assist you during the chaotic initial phase of any cross-border incident.
