Data Protection
Advancing technologies and changes in government regulation mean that it is important to keep up-to-date. Digital transformation leads to growth in data that is registered, processed and shared. Today's almost limitless possibilities enable companies to collect, store and use sensitive information about individuals. Most major businesses handle personal data in a manner that implies requirements for internal policies, agreements, guidelines and web sites. Digitization also means that companies are increasingly exchanging data with foreign companies, either as supplier or as customer, in a corporate relationship, or in connection with transactions. This raises issues related to the rules on processing and transfer of personal data.
