IT / Data Protection

In the field of information technology, we provide comprehensive advice not only on the procurement and sale of software or entire IT solutions, but also on the development of Internet portals, online platforms and e-commerce solutions as well as in complex outsourcing and other IT projects, for example. To this end, we draft the entire contract documentation including the data protection clauses.

We regularly advise on the IT- and data protection-related topics of M&A transactions, including share deals, asset deals and, carve-outs. In particular, we cover IT and data protection matters as part of the legal due diligence during acquisitions and when preparing legal fact books during sales projects. In addition, we prepare and advise on the IT- and data protection-related parts of the contract documentation.

Our firm and our attorneys are regularly recommended for IP and IT matters, e.g., by JUVE (since 2000), World Trademark Review (WTR1000, since 2022), Leaders League (Trademark Law, since 2024), Best Lawyers (since 2013), and F.A.Z. Institute (since 2025).
