New Technologies Law

What is the meaning of New Technologies Law? 

The development of new information and communication technologies has led to the emergence of new technical processes that allow a massive flow of information. As a result, law has had to adapt to these innovations and new practices.

The law of new technologies is a multidisciplinary field in which many related areas of law are intertwined, thus requiring multiple competences that demand the mastery of other disciplines, among others: 

• Personal data protection law, be it data management by companies or the protection of data subjects with the GDPR, cookie regulations and new European and global reinforcements. 
• Criminal law and cybercrime, which punishes criminal conduct related to new technologies, network intrusion, data theft, defamation and slander on the Internet, identity theft and hacking and cracking techniques. 
• Consumer rights 
• Intellectual property law, including trademark law, design law, copyright law; contract law, in particular IT contracts, web services, internet sales, advertising, software licenses, general terms and conditions, etc…).
• Competition law (unfair competition, abuse of dominant position in a market, etc…).
