This essay, through the lens of case law concerning the rulings of the Italian Supervisor Authority, analyses the main legal issues relating to the compliance with data protection law by Amateur Sports Associations (ASA). Then it highlights the importance of both expert knowledge of practices, also through the study of case law in this area, and the identification of figures within the association, adequately trained in this specific area of the legal system.

Data analytics has become a critical part of professional football.  It brings with it a number of challenging legal questions, brought into sharper focus by the reported ‘Project Red Card’ legal action, in which the legality of the systematised use of player performance data has been called into question.  Focussing on the position in English law, this two part article takes a holistic approach to assessing the legal issues presented by the data analytics movement.Part One set out contextual information on the development of data analytics in football, before examining whether the data produced in football are capable of ownership, either in raw format or after manipulation, taking into account the nature of property and intangible assets, relevant intellectual property laws, and non-IP protections. This Part Two goes on to consider the position in respect of data protection law (including FIFA’s Data Protection Regulations) before taking into account some broader legal issues, such as the application of competition law and the regulation of artificial intelligence.The conclusions of Part One and Part Two together are that the intellectual property rights position is broadly positive for data analysts, with legal protections capable of application in many circumstances.  However, data protection law presents a more complicated problem, with a number of challenging compliance obligations for the analytics community, albeit with scope to exploit player performance data where those obligations are met.

The European legal system governing data protection issues is widely regarded as an adequate blueprint for late developers to follow. According to this position, host countries will benefit from receiving the ready-made data protection law because it has already gone through a process of trial and error in Europe. For example, China follows the traditional civil law measures on data protection, such as contractual and tort liability. No Chinese legislation deals specifically with the right to protection of personal data. In China, researchers paid attention to the European legal system, which is regarded as the milestone for data protection. Some vigorously suggest that China should quickly move to enact data protection law based on the model provided by European law.When Chinese researchers strongly promote the European legal system over data protection issues, they send an underlying message that the quality of European laws is good enough to sufficiently deter violations: Individuals would be prohibited from carrying out harmful actions as soon as the expected law is transplanted to China. From a Chinese perspective, our country could quickly move to enact a similar law following the tone of Europe in order to enhance the efficiency of data protection. But is this a compelling position? Will European data protection laws indeed regulate unambiguously and prospectively? Will European data protection laws provide clear guidance to Chinese judges for resolving data protection-related cases? And will the court-enforced laws sufficiently solve the broad spectrum of problems on data use? Understanding the European enforcement mechanism covering data protection issues, and thereby assessing its efficacy on deterrence, is vital to answering these questions.

The phenomenon of influencers influences both business life and business law. Various legal violations of influencers are discussed on an ongoing basis. The author takes a comprehensive look at and assesses the legal issues that have arisen. The focus is on the question of when influencer posts are to be labeled as advertising. Here, the legal classification as advertising or editorial contributions is problematic. The author also addresses other legal questions concerning influencer activities. These concern, for example, the areas of media law, data protection law, trademark law, but also tax law. The author's intention is to create legal clarity in the new legal problem area of influencers.

In this paper, we discuss present and future uses of intelligent facial surveillance (IFS) in law enforcement. We do this through an empirical and legally focused case study of live automated facial recognition (LFR) in British policing. In Part I we analyse insights from 26 frontline police officers on LFR, exploring their concerns and scepticism about the technology. We contextualise this discussion on LFR deployment by examining current UK case law which raises concerns around human rights, data protection and anti-discrimination laws. In Part II, we turn our attention to future uses of IFS, examining frontline officer optimism around LFR when integrated with other surveillance technologies. We also discuss the emergence of new forms of IFS, namely emotional AI (EAI) technologies in law enforcement.We discuss how the law may impact this optimism and integration, by analysing the new EU Proposed AI Regulation (AIR). This law makes LFR a prohibited form of AI in the EU, whilst EAI use by law enforcement will be regulated as a high risk AI system (HRAIS), and thus subject to new rules and design requirements. Part III draws together our reflections on the legal issues and officer perspectives into a series of 10 lessons. These consolidate a set of practical issues weobserve in deploying LFR and EAI. It highlights points that need attention for any future law enforcement use of IFS.

DRM systems have been implemented in the past few years by the Content Industry as the panacea against all copyright (and Intellectual Property Rights in general) infringements over the Internet. The validity of this statement shall be assessed in this analysis, identifying its strengths and record to-date and highlighting its shortcomings in an increasingly complex e-commerce (Web 2.0) environment. While doing this, particular attention shall be given to (mostly EU) Intellectual Property Law, Consumer Law, Data Protection Law, and Competition Law.

The continuously increasing relevance of online platforms has led to data being of extreme importance for competition. In the age of big data, data has created effective competition in terms of quality and innovation. At the same time, data power poses risks with regard to competition. As a result, numerous new legal issues have arisen concerning the treatment of such data power in relation to the regulation of antitrust abuse. This study examines the effects of data power on the regulation of antitrust abuse by referring to the German Federal Cartel Office’s (Bundeskartellamt) latest case against Facebook. It examines whether and how aspects of data protection can or should be considered with regard to the monitoring of abuse. It also provides an overview of the risks of data power in relation to antitrust issues and clarifies the relationship between anti-trust law and data protection law.
