If you are looking for clear-cut advice and well-rounded insight on privacy and cybersecurity related "dos and don’ts" in the context of your day-to-day operations in Spain – or with a Spanish component – Laur Badin can help you flag potential risks and identify practical and business-oriented solutions that bring added value to your products and/or services.
He has a wealth of experience when dealing with the coordination and notification of complex cross-border personal data breaches with global implications, and he is particularly knowledgeable in the field of the negotiation and localization of multi-jurisdictional data processing and international data transfer agreements and also in liaising with the competent data protection authorities in the context of Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs) authorization procedures.
Laur mainly focuses his practice on cybersecurity, e-privacy, online marketing, data protection, IT law and commercial IP related matters. Some of his complementary areas of interest include e-commerce, ad-tech, copyright and software licensing, media and telecoms regulations, as well as mobile payment systems, cloud solutions and social media. His preferred pro bono projects involve privacy-by-design and privacy-by-default tools for tech start-ups.
Before joining Hogan Lovells in 2013, Laur interned at the Spanish Association of Privacy Professionals (APEP).
