Data sharing agreements cover how organisations share personal data under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. A solicitor in this area helps prepare and negotiate schedules detailing what data will be shared, with whom, for what purpose, and how long it will be retained, plus safeguards such as data processing agreements and data security measures. They advise on lawful bases for processing and handle issues around third-party controllers and cross-border transfers.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor drafts and negotiates data sharing and processing agreements, including data sharing schedules, data protection clauses, security measures, audit rights and breach response provisions. They identify data protection risks, assess lawful bases, determine roles of data controllers and processors, and ensure compliance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, including international transfers and data subject rights handling.
