Data Protection & Privacy

Data Protection and Privacy

Reputation is one of the most valuable properties than an individual or an organisation possess. We are able to provide a coordinated response for clients facing reputational damage or privacy risks. We have successful track record acting on high profile and controversial matters and we understand that our clients need more than just the best legal advice, they need a practical solution.

Our skills in privacy management interact closely with our understanding of data protection compliance. Personal information is both an intrinsicpart of any organisation’s operations and of essential value to individuals. We advise both organisations and individuals on their rights, their duties and best practice.

Our team of dedicated lawyers understands the complexity of the changing environment and the laws and regulations surrounding the collection and disclosure of information. Our main focus is to assist clients in all aspects of data protection law, from audits, to design, implementation and continuous support. Our team is also adept in challenging decisions revolving around collection of evidence, data protection and privacy before the Data Commissioner and the Cyprus Courts.

We advise clients from a wide range of industries . Starting from the premise that one size does not fit all, we provide practical, comprehensive and expert legal advice taking into account each client’s individual needs, industry and areas of operation. We have been entrusted with some of the biggest data protection projects on the island, including that of the state health insurance service, as well as international projects for multinational companies.

As the sole Cypriot member of the international employment and pensions law alliance Ius Laboris and member of the Data Privacy Expert Group, the our team provides clients with first-class legal advice and support on data protection matters in over 50 countries.
