Data protection law

Using data responsibly, managing risks

The handling of personal data has become a central, ongoing legal and organizational issue for companies. Digital business models, international data flows, and ever-increasing regulatory requirements present ongoing challenges for internal data protection processes. Violations can result in substantial fines, reputational damage, and operational risks. We support companies in reliably implementing data protection requirements and integrating data handling into their business processes in a legally compliant manner.

FGvW provides comprehensive advice on data protection law. We assist our clients in analyzing existing data processing procedures, developing robust data protection frameworks, and conducting legal assessments of new digital business models. Our advisory approach combines legal precision with a clear understanding of technical processes in business practice.

Our services focus in particular on:

  • Advice on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and national data protection law
  • Establishment and further development of data protection compliance structures
  • Drafting of data protection policies and internal processes
  • Review and drafting of data processing and data transfer agreements
  • Assistance with data breaches and reporting procedures to supervisory authorities
  • Representation in administrative proceedings and litigation

We view data protection law as an integral part of modern corporate organization. Our advisors work closely with related practice groups, particularly in the areas of IT law, labor law, and compliance. In this way, we help companies establish and further develop legally sound structures that meet regulatory requirements while remaining practical for implementation in day-to-day business operations.

Data protection requires clear structures, reliable processes, and a precise legal classification of technical developments. We support you in minimizing data protection risks, securing flexibility, and ensuring the responsible handling of data in a legally compliant and sustainable manner.
