Cybersecurity & Privacy

We develop data privacy and cybersecurity plans that address the mandates of the EU General Data Protection (GDPR) and Vietnam cybersecurity regulations. Our cyberlaw consulting team comprises coders, IT specialists and veteran IT lawyers trained in the UK, Germany, Switzerland and Vietnam, is ready to protect your operations and information while guided by your strategic goals and technology infrastructure.

More than ever, organizations face enormous threats to their data security. If a breach occurs, we deploy a transnational action team, which includes Certified Information Privacy Professionals (CIPP/E) to timely settle the arising issues.

We have advised multinational companies and organizations on privacy and data protection matters as well as potential GDPR (DSGVO) risks arising out of Vietnam’s cybersecurity regulations. We are also experienced at setting up privacy policy, terms of use, cookie policy and e-commerce structure applied for social media platforms.

Renewable Energy (RE)

At TRUNOLD, we specialize in addressing the complex landscape of Vietnam’s renewable energy market. Our team has an in-depth understanding of the country’s energy regulatory framework, as well as the practical transactional and legal skills needed to help our clients successfully negotiate and complete transactions with local partners.

Navigating Vietnamese market presents a unique set of challenges, as the country’s energy regulatory framework is complex and often leaves door for local partners to be dominant players in the market. As a result, it’s a common practice for foreign investors to acquire renewable projects from local partners or collaborate with domestic corporations to tackle challenging licensing matters and expedite the projects’ COD stage.

With our knowledge of the laws, the rules and the customs governing Vietnam market, we can strategically advise and protect our clients throughout the negotiation and transaction processes with their local partners. Our goal is to ensure the success of foreign-invested RE projects in Vietnam, and we are committed to providing our clients with the guidance and support they need to achieve their goals in this exciting and rapidly evolving market.

This provides us with a key advantage in delivering timely and pragmatic legal solutions to our clients.
