Data Protection compliance as competitive advantage in a global digital economy
Data Protection Compliance as Competitive Advantage in a Global Digital Economy
Data protection and cybersecurity are becoming focal points in international arbitration. The politically and commercially sensitive nature of arbitration disputes, which are often confidential, makes them an attractive target for hackers. The prevalence of online hearings and electronic records in the wake of COVID-19 has brought renewed awareness of cybersecurity and data protection risks, a trend that will continue into 2023 and beyond.
Most personal data protection laws are mandatory in arbitration proceedings, meaning they prescribe:
• what personal data may be processed;
• where;
• by what means;
• with which information security measures; and
• for how long.
Beyond the importance of protecting data for its own sake, parties and counsel should be aware that various mandatory data protection regulations may arise at different stages of an arbitration or affect certain participants but not others. Personal data transfers can trigger a complex web of different legal regimes with strict rules on when and how data can be transferred internationally. For example, a party’s evidence may include emails between persons based in the EU and that contain personal, protected data under the GDPR. To transfer such data to an arbitrator in a third-party country, the party may be required to put in place appropriate safeguards to protect those emails. In some cases, personal data will need to be redacted before it can be transferred. Regulators are augmenting the costs of noncompliance, with fines for breaches of the data protection laws.
