Our Personal Data Protection practice brings together lawyers with deep, commercially focused expertise in personal data processing and protection. In the context of large-scale digital transformation and the rapid escalation of cyber risks, high-quality legal support has become a key component of business resilience.
As regulatory scrutiny intensifies and statutory requirements become more stringent, businesses must act swiftly to adapt to the evolving regulatory landscape and mitigate data protection risks effectively.
Our team advises Russian and international clients across a broad range of industries on all aspects of personal data and privacy law. We assist with the full spectrum of data protection matters – from legal due diligence and the development of internal policies and procedures to the implementation of comprehensive personal data processing frameworks tailored to our clients’ business needs.
We also support clients in managing regulatory and civil liability risks, including exposure to administrative fines, the consequences of data breaches, website blocking measures and reputational harm.
Where appropriate, we draw on the expertise of other practices within the Firm and collaborate with leading information security and IT service providers. This multidisciplinary approach enables us to design and implement fully integrated solutions aligned with our clients’ business processes and digital infrastructure.
Our lawyers are actively involved in shaping the regulatory and enforcement environment. They participate in expert groups and competence centres under the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media (Roskomnadzor), contribute to the development of draft legislation and official guidance, and co-author regulatory roadmaps aimed at preventing violations of data subjects’ rights.
