Data Protection and IT Law

Zuhorn and Partner´s Data Privacy Team named "Hidden Champion":

We advise companies regarding their compliance with national and European data protection provisions, international and inter-European data transfers as well as on the creation, design and implementation of professional data protection management systems. To this end, we place particular focus on interdisciplinary consulting, pragmatic approaches and economic efficiency. We represent our clients with a sense of proportion in negotiations and when cooperating with supervisory authorities, associations and works councils.

The effect of the GDPR on 05/25/2018 currently requires the implementation of new processes, in particular for dealing with data subject rights or data breach notification. In addition, companies need to be accountable through a redesigned data protection management system. Contracts and documentation (for example, record of processing and data protection impact assessment) must be revised, technical data protection checked and regularly being audited, and data protection officers appointed or trained. Zuhorn und Partner advises, trains and accompanies national and international companies on all issues and projects for implementing the General Data Protection Regulation.

We also support you in drafting agreements as well as in contract negotiations in the areas of licenses, software and hardware and with regard to questions revolving around the legal design of IT projects and websites. This also includes protecting and defending your intellectual property rights.
