In the context of a digital economy, data protection in its various forms is extremely important. Our firm has gained extensive knowledge in this area, covering a wide range of business sectors, such as finance, healthcare and the processing of genetic material, as well as the marketing and sales of goods and services through online platforms. This topic must not be addressed statically but rather from a dynamic, inter-territorial standpoint. Consequently, we not only take into consideration the law in force, but also since this is a subject in constant transformation, its potential evolution. In addition to Swiss law, EU law (GDPR) must also be considered, depending on the place of residence of the client.
Our firm has also developed considerable experience in relation to the protection of the most diverse intellectual property titles (copyrights, trademarks, patents). This protection may be called upon at various stages. It can be required within the framework of a shrewd contractual definition of these rights, for example in the context of licensing or franchising agreements, or when these rights are infringed during litigation proceedings.
Finally, we define the most appropriate contractual relationships for the outsourcing of IT service.
