Daiga Grunte-Sonne specialises in data protection, marketing, consumer and IP law. She is internationally certified in European data protection law (CIPP/E).

Daiga works with all aspects of data protection law in all industries, offering advice on i.a. the rules on consent, the requirements for legitimate processing, the use of personal data for specific purposes, the negotiation of data processing agreements, and issues in relation to third country transfers.

In addition, she frequently leads large compliance projects for clients.
