About Hans Graux

Hans is a partner at time.lex, an associate researcher at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Law and ICT (ICRI) at the K.U.Leuven, and an independent legal expert in the Flemish Supervisory Committee (Vlaamse Toezichtscommissie).

Having graduated in Law in 2002, he obtained a complementary degree in IT in 2003. This combination makes him the ideal specialist for complex legal files that also require a solid technical grounding. Since 2005, he has primarily been active as a lawyer at the bar of Brussels.

Hans frequently acts as a legal advisor to the European Commission in several policy areas, including electronic signatures, identity management, privacy protection and e-procurement. In 2007 he co-founded time.lex. His recent assignments center mainly around data protection (privacy protection), cloud computing, open source software development and geographic information systems.
