This work covers cross-border data protection and cybersecurity matters under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, including how organisations transfer data to and from the United States. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates data processing agreements, policy documentation, and data breach response plans; conducts data protection impact assessments; reviews security practices; and advises on regulatory investigations, enforcement, and incident notification obligations. They also handle mechanisms for transfers, such as standard contractual clauses and related governance.
