From 2019 to 2024, Dániel served as Data Protection Officer and Head of Data and Confidentiality Protection at a major Hungarian bank. In this capacity, he played a key role in supporting a three-way bank merger and establishing the data protection and confidentiality compliance framework of one of Hungary’s largest banking groups.

In 2024, he briefly worked as a Data Privacy Advisor at the Budapest-based Global Service Center of one of the world’s largest oil and gas companies.

Since 2024, Dániel has been practicing as an attorney-at-law, developing extensive expertise in family law, particularly matrimonial status and matrimonial property matters, with substantial experience in litigation. His practice also encompasses the registration of non-government organizations and amendments to their registered particulars, as well as legal advisory services in anti-money laundering (AML), consumer protection and product compliance matters.
