GDPR EU Representative for Legal Tech Companies
Legal-tech platforms process some of the most sensitive third-party data on the market. EU law firms are conservative buyers and expect their vendors to be fully compliant.
Why Legal tech are squarely in GDPR scope
The trigger for GDPR Article 27 is not company size or revenue — it is whether you offer goods or services to people in the EU, or monitor their behaviour. Legal tech typically meet both tests the moment they have a single EU user, customer, or visitor.
Personal data your legal tech typically processes
- Privileged communications and matter files
- Litigation hold and e-discovery datasets
- Contract repositories with personal data inside
- Time-and-billing detail for client matters
The risk of staying uncovered
EU bar associations and supervisory authorities have specific guidance on legal-tech vendors. A representative with licensed attorneys involved carries more weight than a mailbox when these audits arrive.
What a real EU representative does for a legal tech
We act as the named point of contact for EU supervisory authorities and data subjects across all 27 member states. When a regulator writes, the letter lands with a registered German company with lawyers on the team, is handled in German where needed, and reaches you promptly. When a data subject sends an Article 15 access request, we forward it to your named contact and log it. Responding remains your job; legal support is available as a separate engagement.
