On 22 April 2015, Nick O’Connell, Senior Associate of the TMT practice gave an interactive seminar on Data Protection at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Dubai. Nick provided attendees with a refresher on the DIFC Data Protection Law, and discussed how personal data may be processed and transferred in accordance with DIFC legal requirements. Participants were primarily in-house legal and compliance specialists from DIFC registered banks and other entities. Judging from questions and comments arising, the seminar was timely, relevant and useful.
