Susanna Halmeensuo

I advise Fondia's clients on privacy and data protection matters with a business-oriented and solution-driven approach. I have extensive experience as a data protection lawyer across both the private and public sectors. My expertise encompasses serving as a legal expert in the development of digital services and addressing complex data protection challenges in sectors including financial services, scientific research, and healthcare. I have also held the position of Senior Officer at the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman and contributed to the working groups of the European Data Protection Board (EDPB).

In my free time, you are most likely to bump into me at the gym. My hobbies also include dance, padel, and ice swimming.

  • Compliance assessment in the development of digital services

  • Data protection issues in the financial sector, healthcare and scientific research

  • Tasks of the DPO
