Running a business is inherently linked to the processing of personal data. Clients, employees, contractors, and business partners – each of these relationships requires not only proper structuring but also robust protection of the processed data. This can be ensured with the support of an experienced legal advisors who can also assist in dealings with regulators, such as representing clients in proceedings before the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.
Failing to comply with data protection regulations can result in severe financial penalties, reputational damage, and loss of client trust. Therefore, it is essential for every company, regardless of size or industry, to prioritize comprehensive personal data protection.
The fast-paced changes in economic, technological, and regulatory environments mean that one-off preparation of documentation is rarely enough to ensure ongoing compliance with GDPR – the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of April 27, 2016. This regulation governs the protection of individuals regarding the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data, known in Poland as the Personal Data Protection Regulation.
