Legal CounselA short introduction
About Patrick
“Patrick van de Wetering is specialized in European privacy law. As a CIPP/E and CIPM certified professional, he helps companies navigate complex privacy regulations and implement practical solutions.
Patrick’s passion for privacy is closely connected to his love for technology. As someone who built his own home network and tinkers with various devices, he thoroughly understands the technical side of hardware and digital products. This hands-on experience allows him to bridge the gap between legal requirements and the technical realities faced by game developers, (social media) platforms, and practically anyone who is involved with interactive technology.
Alongside his work at Deviant Legal, Patrick is the Central Privacy Officer at Windesheim University of Applied Sciences, where he also enjoys sharing his knowledge about the intersection of law, technology, and the digital world.”
How can Patrick help?
Patrick helps with privacy and data protection in a practical and understandable way. He advises on GDPR compliance and assists with drafting and reviewing privacy policies, data processing agreements, and internal privacy procedures. He regularly works on privacy issues related to young players, player accounts, analytics, live service games, online communities, and user-generated content.
Another area Patrick can help you with is building a solid privacy framework for your game or platform. This includes conducting data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) and implementing privacy by design and by default. Because Patrick understands how digital systems and hardware work in practice, he is able to translate complex legal requirements into practical solutions that developers can realistically implement.
