On June 18, 2026, Acsour hosted a webinar on one of the most pressing issues for modern business — the organization of personal data processing in light of the latest legislative changes. The event attracted a wide audience of professionals interested in a practical breakdown of new requirements, risks, and ways to mitigate them.

What Was Discussed at the Webinar

Acsour experts — Senior Lawyer Elena Fatkulina and Lawyer Ivan Lyukshin — examined key aspects of personal data processing in 2026. The session covered the following topics:

  • the concept of personal data — what data is currently protected and what remains in the "gray zone";
  • operators and processors — the distinction between roles and responsibilities;
  • liability for violations — a review of fines and legal consequences;
  • common mistakes in personal data processing and how to avoid them;
  • organizing the processing process within a company, including through websites;
  • ensuring security — technical and organizational measures;
  • a review of recent cases and judicial practice.

The high level of participant engagement in the chat confirmed the topic's relevance. Attendees asked questions, shared their experiences, and provided real‑life examples, which made the discussion as practical and interactive as possible.

Why This Matters for Businesses

Legislative changes on personal data that came into force in 2025–2026 have significantly increased fines and expanded the scope of responsibility for data operators. Errors in data processing can lead to serious financial losses, resource blocking, and reputational damage. Timely diagnostics and the implementation of proper solutions are no longer just a recommendation — they are a necessity for any business handling customer and employee data.

Gratitude to the Experts

It is specialists like them who shape Acsour's expert reputation and help clients confidently navigate changing legislation.
