Privacy and GDPR Compliance
Businesses operating in or dealing with customers and partners in different jurisdictions may need to consider both North Macedonian data protection requirements and European privacy standards.
We advise companies on GDPR compliance and related privacy requirements where the European data protection framework is applicable. Our assistance may include reviewing privacy notices, consent mechanisms, data processing arrangements, international data transfers and internal policies.
