Imagine you are in house at a digital/eCommerce company and your business team approaches you with plans to start selling internationally. They regale you with grand promises from global payment providers: "They'll take care of everything—local website, language translation, exchange rate, payment facilitation, etc. It's plug and play!" Not so fast. Before you get moving, there are a myriad of other essential pieces to consider: Will you be shipping physical products - if so, how and from where? Have we thought about customs duties, local product regulations, corporate tax implications, terms and conditions, and IP rights? Are there marketing and advertising restrictions in local countries?

The real differences are manifested in the exceptions to the duty of confidentiality and the applicability of the duty to in-house lawyers. The exceptions to confidentiality are generally (though not universally) broader in the United States. Do not always assume that US ethics law is the most protective. When it comes to confidential information relating to business crimes or fraud, for example, it often may not be. It is imperative to fully understand and properly analyze confidentiality and choice of law issues where foreign ethics law is involved.
