Digital and Data Protection
In Bangladesh, digital systems now shape how businesses operate, store information, and serve their customers. With this rapid shift, companies are facing growing risks involving cybersecurity, privacy breaches, misuse of data, regulatory obligations, and cross-border data transfer. Hiring an experienced Digital and Data Protection Lawyer in Bangladesh is no longer optional; it is essential for every organization that handles customer, employee, financial, or operational data.
Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP is recognized as a leading data protection law firm in Bangladesh, offering end-to-end support for companies that need legal clarity, compliance, and security in an increasingly complex digital environment. Our lawyers help businesses stay ahead of evolving rules, avoid penalties, and confidently operate in sectors such as fintech, e-commerce, telecom, healthcare, logistics, banking, education, SaaS, and manufacturing.
Bangladesh is currently moving toward stronger digital governance through policies such as the Digital Security Act, Data Protection Act (proposed), e-commerce regulations, ICT Act, telecom rules, and sector-specific compliance standards. Many companies find these regulations overwhelming because they involve complex obligations around consent, storage, monitoring, reporting, cross-border transfer, and breach notification.
A skilled data protection lawyer ensures that your company is safeguarded on every front. Our firm advises global corporations, local enterprises, and startups on best practices, legal obligations, incident response, cyber-crime reporting, and data governance frameworks tailored to their operations.
With rising cybercrimes, phishing attacks, data misuse, and ransomware incidents across Bangladesh, businesses are exposed to significant legal and financial threats. A single data breach can destroy years of trust and damage a business beyond repair. This is why organizations rely on our law firm for preventive audits, compliance programs, training, documentation, and emergency response when an incident occurs.
At Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP, we combine deep global standards with local regulatory insight. Whether you are building a digital product, storing customer data, handling payments, or managing employee records, our lawyers can protect your interests at every stage. From drafting data protection policies to responding to high-profile cyber incidents, we stand by clients with practical, business-friendly legal solutions.

Guidance You Deserve
"In an age where every click leaves a trace, reliable digital and data protection is the shield that safeguards businesses from unseen threats."
Modern businesses operate in a digital world where almost every activity involves collecting, storing, and using data. With increasing scrutiny from regulators and customers, companies in Bangladesh must now adhere to strict data governance standards. Our data protection lawyers help businesses meet all legal obligations, avoid penalties, and maintain trust with their users.
Compliance is not just about satisfying regulators; it is about showing clients that their information is respected and protected. Our law firm prepares complete documentation systems that align with global standards such as GDPR, India DPDP Act, and emerging Bangladeshi data protection regulations. We draft and customize:
Privacy Policies
Cookie Policies
Data Retention Policies
Data Processing Agreements
Employee Data Handling Frameworks
Internal Access Control Policies
Vendor Data Sharing Rules
Many companies operate with poorly written or copied policies that create serious legal risk. A single unclear clause can make the company liable for misuse of data by employees or external partners. Our lawyers ensure that your policies reflect your actual business processes, technology systems, and customer-facing practices.
We also conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments to help companies identify vulnerabilities. These assessments outline what data you collect, where it is stored, who can access it, and how secure those systems are. Businesses often store sensitive customer information on outdated servers, shared drives, or unsecured cloud platforms without realizing the consequences. Our law firm analyzes these risks and provides practical steps to mitigate them.
Training is another major part of compliance. Employees remain one of the biggest causes of data breaches worldwide. Our lawyers build tailored training modules to help staff understand security practices, access protocols, and reporting obligations.
By working with Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP, companies ensure that their digital systems comply with Bangladesh’s evolving legal landscape. You operate confidently, knowing your data governance is legally sound and professionally structured.
A cybersecurity incident can strike without warning. Whether it is a hacker breaking into your servers, a malicious employee leaking confidential data, or a ransomware attack locking your systems, the consequences can be devastating. Companies risk financial loss, regulatory penalties, operational breakdown, and long-term brand damage.
Our cybersecurity lawyers guide businesses through each step of incident management. We help you identify the breach, contain the damage, notify authorities when required, and prepare a recovery strategy. The first few hours after a breach are critical. Any delay or wrong decision can worsen the damage and increase legal consequences.
We work with technical teams, forensic experts, and internal management to properly investigate the incident. Our law firm assists in determining:
What data was accessed
How the breach occurred
Whether customer information was compromised
How to limit further exposure
Which regulatory bodies must be notified
If the breach involves cross-border users or international partners, we help manage compliance across multiple jurisdictions. Failure to comply with foreign data laws can lead to large penalties.
We draft proper breach notification statements that are honest, transparent, and legally protected. Many companies make the mistake of hiding incidents or issuing statements that create liability later. Our experience ensures communication is safe and compliant.
Cyber incidents often involve negotiations with attackers, disputes with vendors, or insurance claims. Our lawyers represent clients in every scenario, ensuring that the company takes the safest possible approach.
Businesses in Bangladesh increasingly rely on cloud platforms, foreign software, international partners, and outsourced teams. These activities involve transferring personal and business data across borders. However, cross-border data transfer is becoming highly regulated worldwide.
Our data protection law firm helps companies understand and comply with international rules that apply to foreign user data, payment processing, cloud storage, or offshore operations. We assist with:
Drafting cross-border transfer agreements
Complying with EU GDPR requirements
Meeting Asian regional data laws
Managing US, UK, and Singapore data obligations
Evaluating foreign cloud service contracts
Preparing Standard Contractual Clauses
Foreign authorities often enforce strict penalties for unlawful data transfers. Many Bangladeshi companies unknowingly store or process foreign user data without aligned legal documentation. Our lawyers ensure compliance before problems arise.
This service is essential for SaaS companies, BPOs, international NGOs, logistics providers, and e-commerce platforms that serve users around the world.
Cybercrime is rising dramatically in Bangladesh. Businesses now face threats such as impersonation, hacking, identity theft, online fraud, phishing, ransomware, and unauthorized access to business accounts. When such incidents occur, companies need rapid legal support from experienced digital crime lawyers.
Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP assists clients in filing cybercrime reports, coordinating with police, preserving digital evidence, and protecting their rights throughout the investigation. Digital offenses often involve complex jurisdiction issues because attackers may be anonymous or operating from outside Bangladesh.
Our lawyers ensure that evidence is collected properly and that the complaint is structured in a way that allows authorities to take immediate action. We represent clients in disputes involving:
Online scams
Unauthorized transactions
Business email compromise
Social media identity misuse
Stolen data
Online harassment
Corporate espionage
Cybercrime cases require technical understanding as well as legal expertise. Our firm bridges that gap by guiding companies through both processes.
Digital businesses rely on multiple technology partners, platforms, and third-party vendors. Each relationship should be backed by professionally drafted IT contracts to prevent future disputes. We draft and review:
SaaS Agreements
IT Service Contracts
Cloud Service Agreements
Terms and Conditions
Privacy Terms
End User License Agreements
Vendor Data Sharing Contracts
Poorly drafted digital agreements expose businesses to major risks such as unauthorized data use, intellectual property theft, or operational conflict. Our law firm prepares strong contracts that clearly define rights, obligations, ownership, confidentiality, liabilities, and data protection duties.
