On May 10, 2023, a corporate data compliance sharing session hosted by Shanghai Landing Law Offices was successfully held in a hybrid online and offline format.

Data, as a new element of production, is the foundation of digitization, networking, and intelligence. It has quickly integrated into various sectors like production, distribution, circulation, consumption, and social service management, profoundly altering production methods, lifestyles, and social governance. Data is a tangible representation and crucial carrier of enterprise resources. In this era of universal connectivity, data permeates every aspect of enterprise design, production, management, service, and operations. The optimization of acquiring and allocating enterprise resources is a process of reshaping enterprise development models and competitive advantages using digital means. For this reason, the conference on corporate data compliance issues was hosted by Ding Yanling, a senior partner of Shanghai Landing Law Offices. Senior partners Wang Ying from Shanghai Duan & Duan Law Firm and Chen Mengyuan, a senior lawyer from Shanghai Landing Law Offices, gave keynote presentations. Ye Juan, a senior consultant of Shanghai Landing Law Offices, and Xu Lihong, a lawyer from Shanghai Zhihe Partners, participated in the discussion.

Firstly, Senior Partner Wang Ying from Shanghai Duan & Duan Law Firm presented on "Response Solutions for Transnational Enterprise Data Export under the Context of the 'Data Twenty Articles'". She discussed the legislative framework of data, interpretation of the "Data Twenty Articles", the concept and scenarios of data export, and corporate response strategies. Wang Ying emphasized that companies need to proactively address regulatory issues regarding data export and strengthen self-inspection.

Subsequently, Senior Consultant Ye Juan from Shanghai Landing Law Offices shared her insights based on Wang Ying's presentation, integrating her own experience in the internet and big data industries.

Next, Chen Mengyuan, a senior lawyer from Shanghai Landing Law Offices, presented on the topic of "Viewing the Boundaries of Commercial Crawler Use from Unfair Competition Cases Related to Data Crawling". Through the lens of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, she introduced the current regulatory status of data crawling and the evolution of judicial thinking about the unfair competition aspects of public data crawling, offering compliance recommendations.

Lastly, Xu Lihong, a lawyer from Shanghai Zhihe Partners, built on Chen Mengyuan's presentation, intertwining her practical experience.
