Network of European Data Protection Lawyers
In conjunction with the
launch of the Data Protection Rules web pages, TRILANTIC has
established a database of European Data Protection Lawyers to whom
clients can be referred when in need of data protection advice. The
law firms are based in 26 countries from Albania to Sweden,
including countries not yet part of the EU who have implemented
their own data protection laws. All the law firms are happy to
provide country specific legal advice to TRILANTIC’s clients.
Safe Harbour
Directive/95/46 prohibits the transfer of personal data to non-EU
nations that do not meet the European “adequacy” standard for
privacy protection. The U.S. Department of Commerce has developed a
"Safe Harbour" framework that organisations can join to enable
the transfer of personal data.
