Corporate clients

The BGP Litigation Technology Practice team supports businesses on projects involving protection and use of personal data, information and cyber security. We help companies observe the complex regulatory requirements on collection, storage and processing of personal data in both Russia and other jurisdictions. Our lawyers’ profound knowledge of the problems faced by businesses in this sector enables us to organise risk management competently. In turn, this allows companies to avoid fines and reputational damage from breaching the legislation on personal data security and the cyber security rules.

Analysis of the client’s operating systems and the risk cancellation solutions offered on its basis permit us to build a compliant system for working with personal data even in the most sensitive sectors, such as medicine and pharmaceuticals. We also advise clients in crises and help them eliminate the consequences of shortcomings in personal data processing and company security systems, as well as when the company’s interests need to be defended in court.
