[Telecommunications & Digital Infrastructure](https://augustdeboustg.wpenginepowered.com/en/secteur/telecommunications-digital-infrastructure/) ## Resolving, defending, and enforcing *your rights in the digital economy* The digital economy is reshaping business models and redefining accountability. GDPR, DSA, DMA, AI Act, NIS2, and the Data Act establish a demanding European regulatory framework. Each IT contract, data processing operation, or cyber incident can affect business continuity. Disputes are increasingly frequent, involving contractual breaches, service interruptions, cyberattacks, CNIL investigations, competition claims, and cross-border litigation. 0 0 We intervene at every stage, from contract structuring and regulatory compliance to crisis management, negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and litigation before civil, criminal, and administrative courts. Our strength lies in aligning legal insight, technical expertise, and business strategy. Working alongside general counsel, executives, investment funds, and scale-ups, we resolve disputes, protect digital assets, and create the conditions for sustainable growth. ## *our*Interventions 0 0 ### (01) Technology Contracts and Projects Custom development, SaaS licensing, cloud services, integration, maintenance, outsourcing: our team structures and negotiates the contracts that drive your digital projects. In the event of failure, delay, or non-compliance, we manage renegotiations, activate warranties, and initiate liability actions when required. We also handle disputes between technology partners or shareholders over the valuation of digital assets. IT litigation demands both legal precision and a strong technical understanding of digital environments. ### (02) Data Governance and Compliance GDPR compliance, international data transfers, impact assessments, and data breach management require robust, auditable governance frameworks. We design and implement data governance programs that meet these standards. When facing CNIL or other European regulatory investigations, we lead defense strategies, prepare adversarial proceedings, and negotiate corrective measures. We coordinate legal teams, DPOs, and technical departments to establish documented and adaptive practices aligned with business needs. The goal is to reduce regulatory risk, strengthen client trust, and turn data into a sustainable, valuable strategic asset. ### (03) European Digital Regulations DSA, DMA, AI Act, Data Act, NIS2: these regulations are reshaping the obligations of platforms, AI providers, essential operators and cloud service providers. We guide businesses through compliance, from mapping regulatory requirements to drafting internal policies, terms of use, control processes and AI system documentation. When regulators launch investigations or enforcement proceedings, we handle the defence and manage institutional dialogue. Our support enables clients to turn these regulatory frameworks into a competitive and credibility advantage. ### (04) Digital Crisis Management and Litigation Cyberattacks, data breaches, service disruptions, and major incidents require immediate, coordinated action. We activate multidisciplinary crisis teams to address technical analysis, litigation strategy, cyber insurance, crisis communication, mediation, or arbitration. Every response is designed to protect business operations, limit financial exposure, and safeguard reputation. We litigate before civil, criminal, and administrative courts and manage cross-border class actions. In parallel, we quantify damages, prepare compensation claims, and lead settlement negotiations to secure recovery. ### (05) Strategic Risk Management and Responsible Innovation Generative AI, digital platforms, automation, and blockchain projects require legal integration from the outset. We support management teams in identifying legal risks, defining contractual and regulatory frameworks, training teams, and documenting governance processes. This forward-looking approach embeds law at the heart of digital strategy, reduces future disputes, and facilitates fundraising. It also structures technology due diligence in M&A transactions and secures the long-term valuation of digital assets.
