Webinar: Weaponising the GDPR

Weaponising the GDPR – using data protection law to help in disputes

Our Speakers Simon Adamyk and Justin Perring explore the topic of “Weaponising the GDPR – using data protection law to help in disputes”. The UK GDPR provides powerful rights to individuals to ensure that they can access personal data held about them and in some circumstances correct it or even delete it. These same rights can also furnish powerful tools to litigators and other legal advisors to assist their clients in pursuing disputes effectively on various fronts.

The UK GDPR provides powerful rights to individuals to ensure that they can access personal data held about them and in some circumstances correct it or even delete it. These same rights can also furnish powerful tools to litigators and other legal advisors to assist their clients in pursuing disputes effectively on various fronts.

Simon Adamyk and Justin Perring discuss various ways in which these rights can be used to promote clients’ interests in litigation. They provide clear and insightful analysis of how these tools can best be deployed and (conversely) how parties seeking to resist such attacks can seek to defend themselves. They look at various cases in which these rights have been used and provide guidance on how litigators could adjust their litigation strategy in order to use these rights effectively.
