Data protection
The purpose of personal data protection is to protect the rights and freedoms of any natural person whose personal data are processed in the Slovak Republic, or whose personal data are to be processed abroad. Therefore, no business entity or private person can avoid this issue. The data protection must meet complicated and legally demanding requirements, in particular the rules stipulated in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Our law firm offers you comprehensive legal advice on any and all privacy issues, so you won't get lost in the complicated and time-consuming regulations.
In our practice, we have encountered a wide range of privacy issues. We will therefore advise you on the correct setting of relationships with the data subjects and business partners, the manner of collecting personal data and the related obligations towards the data subjects and the public authorities.
We further specialize on businesses operated on the Internet and on related privacy issues. In order to avoid legal risks, we will be pleased to assess the suitability of using various online services in terms of compliance with the privacy policy (e.g., terms and conditions of use of cloud services or for using cookies, apps for creating and sending newsletters etc.). Be sure that you run your business on the Internet in a way that you meet all the complex legal requirements on data protection.
Legal relationships with business partners must also meet strict privacy requirements. Entrust us your contracts and ensure that you only pass on personal data to other businesses in a lawful manner. Also, be sure that your business partners only give you the information that is necessary for you and that you can process legally. We will be pleased to review your existing contracts so that you do not face any legal risks in the case of an inspection carried out by the Office for personal data protection.
