Why do we have compliance programs and what does it take to make them Effective with a capital “E?” Why do we care? What is the role of in-house counsel in making sure that effectiveness is achieved and delivered? Effective ethics and compliance programs are important both preventatively – to make sure that bad conduct does not occur – and after the fact – to make sure that bad conduct gets addressed so it doesn’t continue and won’t happen again. Moreover, not having an effective program can have disastrous consequences. Come learn how to develop it into much more than a code of conduct gathering dust on the shelf.
Our roles within our companies offer us a unique view of the business, as well as the outside and internal forces that influence it. As in-house counsel, we like challenges and thrive on finding solutions that push our organizations forward.
The new Data Protection Law, DIFC No. 5 of 2020 (the "DP Law"), became effective 1 July 2020 and replaces DIFC Law No.1 of 2007. Businesses caught by the legislation have a grace period of three months to bring their organisations into compliance with the new requirements.
The new DP Law has been aligned with data protection regimes elsewhere in the world such as the European GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act. Adoption of international data privacy concepts means we're hopeful that such reform will see other territories recognising the DIFC as providing sufficient regulatory protection to allow data transfers in and out of the DIFC with relative ease.
