Alex Beresford

I enjoy providing practical and strategic privacy advice to clients across a wide range of sectors including technology, heath & life sciences, public, adtech, hotel, travel and leisure, and e-commerce.
 
I am able to provide my clients with advice on a full range of data protection and privacy issues. I have particular experience in acting as a DPO, assessing risks in the event of a data incident, handling issues surrounding health data, freedom of information and data subject access requests, navigating investigations and inquiries from regulators (particularly the Information Commissioner's Officer) and dealing with privacy issues with cross over with employment issues.
 
Before joining Fieldfisher, I worked for the Police, the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse and the Financial Conduct Authority. This experience complements my current practice as I can draw from my experiences of how regulatory investigations are run and how to handle privacy compliance in house.
