ABSTRACT
More than ever it is crucial that organizations manage and safeguard personal information and address their risks and legalresponsibilities in relation to processing personal data, to address the growing thicket of applicable data protection legislation.
A well-constructed and comprehensive compliance program can solve these competing interests and is an important risk management tool.
This handbook sets out an overview of the key privacy and data protection laws and regulations across nearly 100 different jurisdictions and offers a primer to businesses as they consider this complex and increasingly important area of compliance.
DLA Piper’s global data protection and privacy team has the deep experience and international reach to help global businesses develop and implement practical compliance solutions to the myriad data protection laws that apply to global businesses.
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to DLA Piper’s Data Protection Laws of the World Handbook. We launched the first edition of the handbook in 2012, and following such a positive response have been updating it annually ever since.
We continue to witness a period of unprecedented activity in the development of data protection regulation around the world which will have a profound impact on the way in which global businesses are required to approach the collection and management
of personal information.
These changes are being driven largely by cultural and trade considerations and by a struggle to keep pace with emerging technology and online business methods.

DATA PRIVACY SCOREBOX
You may also be interested in our Data Privacy Scorebox, a tool to help you assess your data protection strategy. It requires completing a survey covering 12 areas of data privacy, such as storage of data, use of data, and customers’ rights. Once completed,
a report summarizing your organization’s alignment with key global principles of data protection is produced. The report includes a visual summary of the strengths and weaknesses of your data protection strategy, a practical action point checklist, as well as
peer benchmarking data. To access the Scorebox, please visit www.dlapiper.com/dataprotection
