Personal Data GDPR
No company, private or public organization escapes the processing of personal data. Their collection occurs in all sectors of activity and on many occasions: when browsing websites, in human resources management, during promotional offers or contests, etc. The legislation on personal data, guided by the desire to protect consumers, is constantly evolving. It entails numerous obligations in the processing of data, sanctioned by fines which can be very high. Arénaire lawyers assist you and advise you on how to bring your company into compliance with the laws on personal data, and in particular the GDPR.
Arénaire Avocats, lawyers in personal data: at the forefront of an evolving field
The collection and processing of personal data are governed by French and European laws:
- The French law of 6 January 1978 on information technologies, data processing and freedoms.
- The European Union regulation of 27 April 2016: General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
- The French personal data protection law of 20 June 2018.
- The recommendations of the French “Commission nationale de l’informatique et des libertés” (CNIL) and the European Data Protection Board (EDPB).
Our lawyers closely follow the evolution of personal data law. We integrate these legal obligations into a global strategy of legal counsel adapted to your activity, your economic constraints, and your needs.
