Galexia delivers strategic advice on industry self-regulation and codes of conduct.


[ Galexia Dots ]

Galexia provides advice on a range of best practice regulation, including industry self-regulation, co-regulation, and codes of conduct. We understand that different regulatory models suit different applications, and advise on the most appropriate model for a given context.

Our legal and technological expertise spans electronic commerce, privacy, identity, authentication, and consumer protection, across a range of industries. We are in a unique position to balance regulatory and best practice requirements with business needs and stakeholder or consumer concerns.

  • Code membership requirements
  • Conduct and obligations
