Olivia Wint is an associate in BCLP’s Data Privacy and Security group. She advises on all aspects of data privacy compliance, with a particular focus on global compliance strategies including UK/EU GDPR, direct marketing obligations and cross border data transfers.

Olivia has experience advising on the data privacy implications and risks associated with technology roll outs across organisations, such as employee monitoring solutions, cookie consent platforms and artificial intelligence, more generally.

She advises on breach/crisis management and reporting obligations in complex international data breaches, and works with clients of varying sizes (start-ups to multinational) and within various sectors (including healthcare, financial services, charities, and technology) which equips her to navigate nuanced client complexities and add value to her clients.

Olivia has been included in the 2024 England and Wales Pro Bono Recognition List for her pro bono legal support and is an Advisory Committee Member for the Law Society’s Ethnic Solicitors Network.   She is also an active member of the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP).

Prior to qualifying as a solicitor, Olivia spent several years in operational data protection roles with notable experience gained during her time at one of the Big 4 consulting firms, where she was seconded to a number of international organisations. As a result of these secondments and Olivia’s previous roles more broadly, Olivia has first-hand insight into the practical considerations relating to data protection compliance, which enables her to provide pragmatic and commercially focussed legal solutions.
