  • Advising on outsourcing (data processing by third parties)
  • Contract drafting, review and negotiation, including contract templates (e.g. agreement on commissioned data processing)
  • Preparation and review of data protection provisions in General Terms and Conditions
  • Preparation and review of privacy statements
  • Preparation and review of processing records
  • Support in the creation of concepts and processes in connection with requests for information, breaches of data security (reporting obligations), data protection impact assessments, etc.
  • Assessing and representing interests regarding liability and insurance issues in the area of cyber security (data loss or theft, infringements of intellectual property rights and other offenses via the Internet and social media, hacker attacks in payment transactions, etc.)
