About

CCdigitallaw is a national Competence Center in Digital Law that supports Swiss Higher Education Institutions (students, academic and administrative staff) in dealing with legal questions related to the digitization process and the use of digital technologies.

In particular it focuses on aspects related to COPYRIGHT (licensing agreements, open access, Creative Commons licenses, image rights, AI, etc.) and DATA PROTECTION / PRIVACY (personal and sensitive data, anonymization, pseudonymization, etc.) and the elaboration of terms of use, privacy policies and disclaimers.

Through its online platform the center offers a detailed KNOWLEDGE BASE, FAQs, a wide range of on-and offline TRAINING ACTIVITIES mainly adapted for a non-legal audience and an ADVISING SERVICE. All in FOUR LANGUAGES: English, French, German and Italian.

It engages in making the sometimes complex and difficult to understand legal language accessible and comprehensible also to non-experts, allowing to raise awareness on legal issues.

 

CCdigitallaw is a service provided by the eLearning Lab of the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) and is the result of a project funded within the P-5 programme “Scientific information: access, treatment and safeguarding” of swissuniversities.
