Data protection in Spain (LOPD)
Spain changed the laws regarding data protection (LOPD: Ley Orgánica de Protección de Datos) in 2018, in response to the rules passed by the European Union.
We offer our services, which include filing documents to the government whenever your company collects personal data, determining whether specific practices comply with the EU's requirements, analysing possible threats to the data you have collected, and legal advice regarding data. Ensuring that the data of your clients is properly secured is required by law. According to the LOPD, not doing so may result in fines from 900€ to 600.000€.
Contact us and we will send you our proposal for services.

Contact UsWho is obligated to comply with this law?
The law applies to all companies and individuals who record personal data. This includes, for example, professionals such as lawyers or tax advisors, SLs, SAs, chambers of commerce, nonprofit organisations, government administrations, partnerships, bodies of professionals, cooperatives, charities, etc.
If you identify as one of these entities, you should consider our proposal for assistance in adapting to the Data Protection Law.
Does this mean the government has access to my clients' personal information?
They will not have access to the data. They will only have knowledge that the data exists and is not accessible by unwanted third parties without the client's consent.
