In this first episode, we discuss the challenges faced by data controllers in their compliance with Article 5 GDPR following the EU Court of Justice’s Digi Case C-77/21. In particular, we focus our discussion on the purpose and data storage limitations, and how your legal team should be the 3PO protocol droid within your organization for the implementation of GDPR best practices.
May the enforcement be with you!

Les options d’examen et d’analyse assistées par la technologie sont de plus en plus utilisées dans les enquêtes internes et externes, notamment par les multinationales. L’utilisation de l’analyse des données peut apporter efficacité, précision et réduction des coûts. Cependant, le croisement entre le droit et la technologie soulève des préoccupations uniques en matière de protection de la vie privée et d’autres questions juridiques lors des enquêtes internes et externes : cette session permettra de vous mettre à niveau. Les sujets de discussion incluront :
Global law firm K&L Gates has advised Envision Digital, one of the world’s largest managers of renewable energy, on its acquisition of the Nantes-based software publisher QOS Energy.
Envision Digital, which operates the EnOSTM net zero platform, manages more than 400 GW of renewable energy globally. The Singapore-headquartered company has more than 1,000 employees and 12 international offices, spanning the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Malaysia, China, Japan, and the United States.
Founded in Nantes in 2010, QOS Energy is a leading provider of energy management software. It has developed a web-based platform called “Qantum,” dedicated to monitoring and managing the performance of solar and wind energy production and storage facilities.
The Paris-based deal team advising Envision Digital was led by Raphaël Bloch (partner) with the assistance of Samuel Boccara (senior associate). Employment law advice was provided by Christine Artus (partner) and Natacha Meyer (associate), while Claude-Etienne Armingaud (partner) and Camille Scarparo (associate) advised on intellectual property and IT matters. Additional support was provided by Brussels-based partners Melanie Bruneau and Philip Torbøl and counsels Miguel Angel Caramello Alvarez and Antoine de Rohan Chabot, who advised on foreign investment-related issues, and Singapore-based client relationship lawyers Lai Foong Chan and Lucas Nicolet-Serra.
‘Specialist in new technologies’, K&L Gates LLP‘s team has an outstanding reputation for legal advice on innovative technologies and data-related concerns. Claude-Etienne Armingaud and Raphael Bloch are recognised as ‘exceptional lawyers who miss no details and who know their fields to perfection’. Claude-Etienne Armingaud has developed particular knowledge of multijurisdictional transactional matters dealing with IT outsourcing and data protection for blockchain and fintech, connected cars, and big data services.
K&L Gates LLP has strong expertise in innovative systems, combining strength in technology, data protection and IP. Notably undertaking innovative and complex work, the team has advised on encryption and security software for Enigma Software/Cyclonis and secure GPS services for ICaune. Developing a focus on connected transport matters, the firm advises some of the biggest names in this growing area. Claude-Etienne Armingaud is the head of the practice.
Claude-Étienne Armingaud, a partner at K&L Gates in Paris, said the decision would have little impact in practice.
“The new sections adopted in July 2021 are implementing specific and targeted data retention requirements which should therefore comply with both the ECJ decisions and the Constitutional Council decision of today,” he said.
“So, if anything, it’s a tardy decision that was expected and confirmation that the Government did well to anticipate this.”
