Constantinos Papadopoulos

I currently work as a CIPP/E-qualified data protection paralegal within DWF’s Data Protection Extend and Accelerate team. In this role, I support clients with a wide range of data protection and privacy compliance matters, drawing on both legal expertise and practical experience.

Prior to joining DWF, I worked at a silver circle law firm in the UK where I gained valuable exposure to complex regulatory and legal issues. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from Scotland, two postgraduate diplomas in law, and a Master’s degree, all of which have equipped me with a strong foundation in legal reasoning and cross-border regulatory frameworks.

I am also a qualified lawyer in Cyprus, having completed my legal training at one of the Big Four accounting firms and then went on to work at a few reputable national law firms. Separately, I held two concurrent roles at a foreign exchange (Forex) company, serving as both Assistant Data Protection Officer and Alternate Information Security Officer. These positions provided me with hands-on experience in implementing and managing privacy and information security frameworks within a highly regulated financial environment.

My professional journey reflects a consistent commitment to legal excellence, data protection and continuous development across multiple jurisdictions and sectors.

Note These provisions are prepared on the basis that the applicable contract is a business-to-business arrangement, with the supplier acting as processor for a customer in the role of controller, in relation to the processing of personal data governed by the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), Assimilated Regulation (EU) 2016/679. The terms ‘supplier’ and ‘customer’ (in place of ‘processor’ and ‘controller’) are used to simplify incorporation into commercial contracts. The drafting also relies on the additional defined terms ‘Agreement’, ‘Business Day’, ‘Customer’, ‘Data Protection Laws’, ‘Data Subject’, ‘GDPR’ and ‘Supplier’, which are assumed to be defined appropriately elsewhere in the relevant agreement. It is further assumed that ‘GDPR’ refers to UK GDPR and that ‘Data Protection Laws’ includes UK GDPR. These provisions can also be adapted for circumstances where the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), Regulation (EU) 2016/679, applies... 1 Definition (to be incorporated into relevant part of the agreement) 1.1 Representative •...
