Alongside the benefits brought by advanced technology, businesses now often find themselves holding and dealing with vast amounts of data.

The law sets out strict regulations in terms of how data should be stored and managed by businesses, and also the rights that individuals have in relation to their own data. Given that technology continues to advance rapidly, this is a swiftly developing area of law, and it is imperative that businesses are aware of their obligations and rights and equipped to deal with any matters that might arise.

Here at Bishop and Sewell we have an expert team of lawyers who can advise and assist in relation to all aspects of data protection and privacy law. Our specialists act for both businesses and individuals, and the scope of our work extends from advising on compliance with the relevant laws and ensuring that any agreements take account of obligations and possible pitfalls, to managing the impact of any breach, whether by engaging with the Information Commissioner’s Office in the event of non-compliance by a business, or taking steps to protect individual rights, including by issuing a claim.
