Julian B. Flamant

Julian Flamant works with clients to develop effective, risk-based privacy and data protection compliance strategies. His practice is focused on helping clients anticipate and resolve the challenges of providing data-based services on multiple continents.

Julian regularly assists large multinational companies with implementing local projects in compliance with applicable privacy rules, including Europe's GDPR; the FTC Act, COPPA, and state privacy laws (such as the CCPA/CPRA) in the U.S.; and Brazil’s LGPD and Canada's PIPEDA.

Julian also advises on cybersecurity matters, including data breach response and remediation, enterprise-wide assessments of security practices, and compliance with U.S.-state and international security laws and regulations. 

Through two secondments with global companies, Julian has further honed his practical, business-minded approach to counseling and compliance. During his time with a multinational professional services provider, Julian assessed privacy risks of deploying global internal cybersecurity protections. While at a large technology services company, Julian assisted with implementation of an FTC consent order and further developed a keen understanding of the day-to-day challenges of a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

Julian's background gives him unique insight into the European privacy regulatory framework. While earning his master of laws in international relations, Julian prepared a dissertation exploring harmonization of data protection regulatory approaches between the United States and the European Union and later worked on the GDPR's interservice consultation as a European Commission trainee. Julian also was a policy fellow at the Future of Privacy Forum in Washington, D.C., where he led European engagement efforts.

Julian is editor of the firm's Chronicle of Data Protection blog, a platform he helped develop during his time as the Privacy and Cybersecurity group's senior paralegal.
