Our firm’s Law & Tech Department is among Israel’s leading practices in privacy protection and personal-data processing. We advise some of the largest Israeli and international organizations — including cloud-service providers, cellular and Internet communications groups, international and local technology giants, credit-card issuers, insurance companies, pension and provident funds, banks, cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies, infrastructure companies, airlines, multinationals’ R&D centres, automotive and transport companies, government ministries, and start-ups — on the full range of data-protection compliance.

We assist clients implement Amendment 13 to the Privacy Protection Law and prepare for the Privacy Protection Authority’s expanded enforcement powers; build compliance programmes and data-governance frameworks; conduct privacy impact assessments (DPIAs) and draft privacy policies; assist with database registration and management; and guide organizations through the Authority’s sectoral and individual supervision proceedings. We provide outsourced Data Protection Officer (DPO) services, advise on cross-border data transfers (including GDPR alignment), and counsel on the adoption of Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs), including anonymization, pseudonymization, encryption, data minimization and privacy-by-design approaches. We also handle emerging privacy questions arising from artificial intelligence, cloud and SaaS. Alongside ongoing counselling, we are experienced in defending privacy class actions. Our lawyers’ technological background enables comprehensive, practical advice.
