- 'This book is a success in every respect. It is the first book on data protection law that is conceived on a truly European level and goes beyond local coverage to include the practices of the most important EU Member States. At the same time, it has paid off that the author, a lawyer who has worked in the field of international data protection law for many years, has drawn on his lengthy
exprerience in advising corporate clients in writing this book. Thus, the book is certainly of benefit for every company that deals with data protection law in the scope of its compliance activites...Anyone who wants to get a foothold in international data protection law needs to purchase this book. | Multimedia und Recht' -

| Description | | - Fully updated new edition covers the many legal developments in the area, including the first ECJ interpretations of the EU Data Protection Directive
- Focus on data protection compliance for companies, with practical new sections on outsourcing of data processing, records management, processing of employee data, and security breaches
- Extensive appendices include texts of relevant directives, model contracts, and charts with Member State implementations, making this a single comprehensive reference source for EU data protection law affecting companies
- Comparative approach taken, with a section on the interaction of EU data protection law with national laws
| The new edition of this acclaimed book gives a fully updated overview of European data protection law affecting companies, incorporating the important legal developments which have taken place since the last edition was published. These include the first three cases of the European Court of Justice interpreting the EU Data Protection Directive (95/46), the Commission's first report on the
implementation of the Directive, the Data Retention Directive, new developments in international data transfers, conflicts between security requirements and data protection, and the implementation of the Electronic Communications and Privacy Directive 2002/58 in the Member States. It also covers the recent European Court of Justice decision on the controversial export of airline passenger data to
the US, and expands its European overview to include the new and acceding Member States.
The book contains comprehensive coverage of data protection law, while at the same time providing pragmatic guidance on the typical compliance issues that companies face. As globalization of the world economy continues, an increasing number of business issues with data protection implications have come to
the foreground, for example, outsourcing, whistleblower hotlines and records management, all of which are covered in the book. The appendices have been expanded to include most sources which a company will need, such as the texts of relevant directives, the safe harbor principles and FAQs, and charts of implementation in the Member States of specific provisions of interest to business. Thus, the
book is a single reference source for companies faced with data protection issues.
A Chinese edition of the book was published in 2008, making it the first in-depth treatise on European data protection law published in Chinese. |
