Data Privacy & Protection Lawyers Assisting Companies with All Aspects of Data Privacy, Protection and Compliance
Data privacy is more important today than ever before. Due to numerous highly publicized data security breaches at large companies as well as the growing risk of cybersecurity attacks targeting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), governmental authorities in the United States and around the world are imposing data privacy requirements designed to protect customers, patients, and employees. As a result, hiring an experienced Colorado data privacy & protection lawyer is critical.
Of course, SMEs need to protect their own data as well. From proprietary software code to marketing plans and innovations that are proprietary information and aren’t subject to patent protection, most companies have some form of proprietary data that they need to keep secure. In today’s world, data privacy, and protection impact nearly all aspects of companies’ operations in one way or another, and companies must take the steps necessary to keep all data in their custody and control secure.
Our Data Privacy & Protection Services
Our data privacy & protection services help companies of all sizes do what is necessary to keep their and third-party data secure. Our comprehensive data privacy and protection services include:
Privacy Impact Assessments
We conduct privacy impact assessments focused on clearly understanding companies’ data privacy protection needs and compliance obligations. We thoroughly examine all aspects of our clients’ information technology (IT) systems, business operations, and operational structures to determine what is necessary in light of: (i) applicable data privacy laws, (ii) industry data protection standards, and (iii) each client’s specific data security risks. No two companies’ data privacy protection needs are exactly alike, and developing a custom-tailored data protection program is essential for keeping companies’ and third parties’ data secure.
Consumer Privacy Programs
Consumer privacy is a key aspect of data compliance and overall risk management. If your company collects consumer data—whether personally identifying information (PII), financial information, or health data—it has data protection obligations. We can provide all necessary data privacy program documentation and assist with implementing your company’s data privacy program on an organization-wide scale.
SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS Contracts
SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS offer different solutions for companies to manage their IT infrastructure and data efficiently. While engaging a SaaS, IaaS, or PaaS provider can be a crucial aspect of effective data privacy protection, company leaders need to ensure that their contracts include appropriate protections as well. We draft and negotiate SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS for our clients—with an emphasis on ensuring that our clients have the rights and remedies they need if something goes wrong.
U.S. and International Data Privacy Law Compliance
Data privacy laws exist at the state, national and international levels. For companies that do business online, navigating the legal landscape can be challenging—but it is also extremely important. Violating data privacy laws can have severe consequences and can even lead to governmental scrutiny in some cases, private litigation (e.g., by customers) in other cases, and reputational damage in all cases. We help our clients comply with all applicable data privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), among many others.
