It is a pleasure to have been asked to provide the preface to The International Comparative Legal Guide to Data Protection 2019. This edition contains an introductory chapter from White & Case LLP, which briefly charts the technological changes that have driven the evolution of data protection laws in recent decades, and reviews the major challenges that businesses face in complying with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation in particular. It also explores some of the most significant developing trends in privacy laws globally,and illuminates some of the key policy choices that governments will need to consider as they seek to strike a balance between the right to privacy and the development of data-driven economies. Three further general chapters analyse, respectively, the application of data protection law in outer space; the use of binding corporate rules; and data business activities in Japan – illustrating the far-reaching impact of this field of practice. The guide provides 42 country question and answer chapters, focusing on key privacy and data protection compliance issues under local laws in countries around the world. This year, new chapters have been added for Albania,Denmark, Ghana, Indonesia, Kosovo, Malaysia, Niger and Pakistan, which reflects the growth of privacy compliance requirements and challenges in anincreasing number of jurisdictions worldwide. As with other entries in the ICLG series, this edition will provide a go-to resource for anyone seeking practical guidance on these complex international legal issues.
