Privacy And Data Protection Law In Ireland

In 2016, data protection regulation saw the most significant change in over twenty-one years. The Data Protection Directive was replaced in its entirety by the new General Data Protection Regulation. This affects all organizations and all individuals throughout the EU and Ireland. In addition to new and expanded rights and obligations, organizations must also engage Data Protection Officers, whom have significant responsibilities and independence. The second edition of Data Protection Law in Ireland provides a detailed analysis of these new developments, procedures, rights, and obligations of data protection in Ireland. It is the most recent and up-to-date book, providing a comprehensive guide as to what data protection is and the implications and obligations for holders and subjects of such data. This is an essential reference and resource for organizations, companies, solicitors, barristers, Data Protection Officers, compliance officers, IT and security personnel, marketing departments, and those interested in this increasingly important and rapidly changing area of law.
