Position
Melanie Ludolph is a Senior Associate in Fieldfisher´s Hamburg office and advises on data protection issues.
One focus is on advising on the special requirements in the area of (online) marketing as well as on the link between life sciences and data protection, as there are a number of complex questions regarding the collection and use of sensitive data.

The core of her work is also advising on international data transfers.
