This work is a practitioner's guide to considering how data protection and privacy law affect electronic commerce and business practice. Providing compliance advice for any company doing business electronically or handling information relating to individuals, the practice manual is accompanied by a CD-ROM containing precedents, including Website privacy policies, employee's code of conduct for email and Internet use, data processing agreements and standard clauses for international data transfers. The book aims to answer clients' questions, such as: how will the Information Officer's Employment Code of Conduct affect my business? How can I minimize liability for staff misuse of email? Does my Website gather data in an effective and legal way? What does fair and lawful processing of data entail? How can I ensure safe and legal transfer of data outside the UK? This practical work also analyzes EU directives, looking at how they are regulating privacy and data protection on the Internet, as well as considering law and practice in other jurisdictions, such as Australia, Canada and the USA.
