Who we worked for
GDPR for a major Slovak political and social weekly
We handled the complex GDPR documentation for a magazine .týždeň and it was a real challenge. The client processes a lot of personal data as part of their journalistic work. The client is also a book publisher, they run a popular club .pod lampou and an online ecommerce.
As these are very specific activities, in addition to the preparation of complete security documentation, we also carried out a data protection impact assessment as part of the project.

GDPR for a software development company
Steinringer WEB and IT solutions, s.r.o. is an Austrian-Slovak TECH company that provides IT services mainly in the field of construction, sales and property management.
We have prepared a complete GDPR agenda, security documentation, consents to the processing of personal data, and documents containing information for data subjects. As part of the preparation of template contracts with employees and service providers, we also modified the license terms to protect our client when creating new software.

What was the most challenging part of this legal project for you personally?
„MATHISON has always prepared perfectly for our meetings, so there was nothing challenging about our project. In fact, all we had to do was book time for the meetings and the follow-up and the project could be successfully implemented and completed.“
What is key in evaluating the success of a law firm's work?
„I see the law firm as part of our team and less just as an outside contractor. Therefore, I consider it very important that it understands our business accurately. Because if we get it right, we can achieve perfect results on the first try.“
What made the cooperation with MATHISON special for you and how do you rate it?
„MATHISON has shown admirable flexibility in its own internal processes. As soon as they noticed that we had a problem with incorporating a large agenda quickly, they changed their approach. It allocated staff resources, supported us in breaking the agenda down into smaller steps and helped us implement them right away.“
GDPR for a clean-tech platform
We work for the Finnish-Slovak company Solved, which provides a platform connecting experts, sustainable and smart solutions to different types of activities such as projects, events and job opportunities. As it is a “white label“ solution, the platform is used by many clusters, networks, associations or innovation ecosystems in Finland, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, USA and Slovakia.
We have prepared complete GDPR documentation. The main challenge for us was to set the terms and conditions for processing personal data in accordance with the GDPR and the Personal Data Protection Act, as this is a very innovative and fast-moving project.

What was the most challenging part of this legal project for you personally?
„To grasp the GDPR topic, as we are a small company. We perceive that on the one hand, such legislation is the right thing to do because it addresses the peripeteia of how large companies misuse personal information. But for small companies that have a priority interest in protecting their users' personal information, as their future is based on it, the implementation of GDPR legislation is a huge burden. That's why it's crucial to have a knowledgeable, systematic and, above all, patient and helpful legal partner. MATHISON has clearly been that for us!“
What is key in evaluating the success of a law firm's work?
„Professionalism, of course. Since I am not a lawyer, it is first and foremost the trust that is established between the law firm and the client that is the basis for a successful long-term cooperation. Next, it's about communication and flexibility, and this has always been prompt, helpful, I would even say above our expectations on the part of MATHISON.“
What made the cooperation with MATHISON special for you and how do you rate it?
„The fact that we are a small company on the one hand, but due to our activities we require a lot of attention and expertise in such a challenging topic as the actual development of technically demanding web applications can be. And we've always felt that we've received the kind of attention that hasn't taken into account the fact that we're not a big client at all. On the contrary, we felt that our collaboration was mutually enriching!“
