International eDiscovery: Have Data, Will Travel. Not from THIS Country
Overview:
When global companies are faced with litigation, they must be aware of and adhere to strict standards of data collection that vary from country to country. This session will provide a brief overview of the privacy laws of China, Germany, Switzerland, and the UK and how these laws impact companies undertaking eDiscovery exercises or responding to regulatory investigations that originated in the US.
Our speakers will provide analysis on recent decisions that involved collecting data in multiple countries and how the collection, preservation and review affected the case strategy.
Finally, steps corporations can take to reduce the risks and cost associated with international data collection will be examined.
