More than a team, a service.
Content moderation
Effective content management is one of the key challenges facing digital platforms. Our team provides specialist support in the implementation and verification of internal moderation procedures, ensuring compliance with applicable standards in line with national and international best practice. We also work to prevent illegal content and help platforms adapt to the current regulatory framework.
In addition, we advise on content removal, account suspension and user expulsion cases, representing affected parties or supporting consultation processes, providing in-depth knowledge of legislation, case law and digital best practice.
Internal procedures and digital risk management
In the context of the obligations applicable to digital platforms, our team combines detailed knowledge of the regulatory framework with cross-sector experience in designing compliance mechanisms and extensive experience in representing clients in administrative and judicial proceedings for breach of legal obligations, enabling us to better anticipate risks and minimise legal exposure.
The implementation of internal risk management procedures is now an unavoidable legal and regulatory requirement. In the digital context, this management is only possible by combining legal obligations and best preventive practices with the specificities of digital ecosystems. Our work focuses on combining all these aspects in order to provide our clients with efficient control systems in line with the latest technological possibilities.
Collecting digital evidence
Digital platforms are increasingly the site of illegal activities, which take many different and increasingly complex forms.
In this context, we also advise on the collection and analysis of digital evidence hosted on e-commerce platforms, social networks and instant messaging services, ensuring the application of best practices in the preservation of evidence and the control of the legality of intrusions into the profiles or chats of platform users, maintaining their validity and integrity.
We are recognised for our extensive experience in administrative and criminal sanctions proceedings involving the use of this type of evidence, with a team that has specialised in both the theoretical and practical aspects of evidential problems in the digital environment from an early stage.
Transnational cases
Our experience also includes advising those responsible for the management of digital platforms, both in the context of internal procedures and in the context of judicial requests for data retention and access in accordance with national and international law.
Our team currently has extensive experience in international judicial cooperation. We are frequently involved in European and international judicial cooperation proceedings, which are increasingly common in cases involving international servers or platforms.
