Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Recently published by Elgar, this book, in our view, is almost certain to become required reading for practitioners (on both sides of the Atlantic) involved with privacy issues. It contains a wealth of references and resources for further research and, speaking of guidance, it's easy to navigate via a detailed table of contents and index at the back.' -- Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor, The Barrister Magazine 'The proliferation of electronic commerce and the unprecedented volume of data stored by businesses have made data compliance programs for most businesses a priority.

'With the proliferation and diversity of privacy risks and international regulatory controls, and the increasingly obvious intersection of data security and privacy, no company can afford to overlook the importance of an up to date and well-tailored global compliance program. For companies doing business in the cloud or transacting with consumers, a well considered international data privacy compliance program is not only a critical legal and liability control - it's fundamental to earning and maintaining the trust of your customers. In this comprehensive yet concise "field guide," Professor Determann has managed to consolidate an enormous breadth of legal requirements and best practices knowledge into a single, definitive reference that should be quite accessible even to non-privacy professionals. As general counsel of a multinational public company, I consider Determann's Field Guide to International Data Privacy Law Compliance to be a pragmatic and indispensable reference in improving our compliance program, and highly recommend it for anyone looking for clear, practical guidance on establishing or improving their data privacy program!' -- Felix Sterling, Senior Vice President & General Counsel at Trend Micro Inc., Silicon Valley, US
