Compared to the US, European data and privacy protection rules seem Draconian. The European rules apply to any enterprise doing business in the EU. The new rules are far more stringent than the last set. This book is a quick guide to the directives for companies, particularly US, that have to comply with them. Where US organizations and businesses who collect or receive EU personal data fail to comply with the rule, the bottom line can suffer from very significant official fines and penalties, as well as from users, customers or representative bodies to pursuing litigation. This guide is essential for all US enterprises who directly or indirectly deal with EU personal data.

Non-trial resolutions, often referred to as settlements, have been the predominant means of enforcing foreign bribery and other related offences since the entry into force of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention 20 years ago. The last decade has seen a steady increase in the use of coordinated multi-jurisdictional non-trial resolutions, which have, to date, permitted the highest global amount of combined financial penalties in foreign bribery cases. This study is the first cross-country examination of the different types of resolutions that can be used to resolve foreign bribery cases.

This title brings together the different aspects of the transfer landscape and outlines the separate rules, all in one accessible place. Data transfers (under data protection rules) are one of the most discussed areas of data protection, and are currently undergoing significant change. Data transfers are relied on as an essential function of national and international trade, business, and internet use. It is essential for practitioners to keep abreast of the new data transfer rules and changes for their clients. Following on from Brexit, professionals now have more than one set of transfer rules to comply with, including: - The different data transfer channels - New Adequacy Decision - New Standard Contract rules - New UK Contract rules - Consultation process on future laws - New proposed UK data laws - Data law and data transfer changes - Practical and commercial considerations There are more UK data transfer channels and rules to consider now than at any time previously. The UK data transfer regime is now more complex than the EU data transfer regime, necessitating significant extra diligence by commercial entities. This book is designed to assist UK and international law professionals, in-house data protection professionals and a wide range of other interested readers on the increasingly complex area of data rules. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Intellectual Property and IT online service.

Since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, data protection has been elevated to the status of a fundamental right in the European Union and is now enshrined in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights alongside the right to privacy. This timely book investigates the normative significance of data protection as a fundamental right in the EU. The first part of the book examines the scope, the content and the capabilities of data protection as a fundamental right to resolve problems and to provide for an effective protection. It discusses the current approaches to this right in the legal scholarship and the case-law and identifies the limitations that prevent it from having an added value of its own. It suggests a theory of data protection that reconstructs the understanding of this right and could guide courts and legislators on data protection issues. The second part of the book goes on to empirically test the reconstructed right to data protection in four case-studies of counter-terrorism surveillance: communications metadata, travel data, financial data and Internet data surveillance. The book will be of interest to academics, students, policy-makers and practitioners in EU law, privacy, data protection, counter-terrorism and human rights law.
