Cyber & Data Protection experience
The substantial increase in data breaches and the changing landscape in reporting regulations have led to a heightened awareness of the need for network security and compliant data protection processes. The potential financial and reputational implications of a cyber incident or data breach are a board level concern across all organisations.
Our lawyers recognise that clients face different challenges when it comes to insurance and data security. Whether advising insurers or their policyholders we ensure we understand the client's objectives and provide advice tailored to meet those individual needs.
We advise our clients on how they should regularly review and adapt their policies and procedures to ensure they remain compliant with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018, and other legislation where applicable.
Regulatory / Compliance
We advise clients on compliance with the UK GDPR and EU GDPR and international transfer regulations.. We draft privacy policy notices and wordings for use in insurance applications and claim forms particularly where special category data, such as health data, shall be processed.
Policy wording and coverage
We advise on policy wordings and the development of cyber products to respond to market demands, as well as coverage issues.
Advisory
We advise on data breach claims and communications with the Information Commissioner’s Office. If you receive a Subject Access Request, we can manage this for you and/or advise you in providing a compliant response.
