One of the unique features of this new, second edition is that it combines within one volume the most authoritative translations of the privacy and data protection laws in each country. Another feature is its broad coverage. Originally covering seven countries, including France, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, the Guide has been expanded to include new reports where data protection laws have been passed more recently. These include reports on Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, Canada, the United States, The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Denmark, Iceland, Finland, France, Germany, etc. The Guide contains key resource material for those seeking to navigate their way through the sometimes complex environment of privacy protection, especially in the context of transborder data flows.
