EU Data Privacy Law Presents New Challenges and New Opportunities
Summary
A recent survey by DLA Piper found that many organizations across the EU are unprepared on multiple points to meet the express terms of the new data privacy regulation when it rolls out.“The average alignment of survey respondents to the GDPR’s provisions was just 34%,” said Patrick van Eecke, a DLAP partner and report coauthor, “meaning that most organizations have not yet resolved numerous compliance gaps.”We partner with clients from the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors in all regions to identify their highest-value opportunities, address their most critical challenges, and transform their enterprises.Our customized approach combines deep insight into the dynamics of companies and markets with close collaboration at all levels of the client organization.DLA Piper is a global law firm with lawyers located in more than 40 countries throughout the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific, positioning us to help clients with their legal needs around the world.
