DPO as a Service

Leverage our skilled Data Protection Officer resources to guide your organisation through the complexity and frequent changing opinions on data protection topics. most organisations have done some work on GDPR so it’s more about coaching and guiding them in the complexity of GDPR and other legislations

GDPR is about data protection, not about (data) privacy. Privacy is for US legislation, Data Protection is the EU legislation.

Finding a skilled Data Protection Officer (DPO) that matches your organisation can be a real challenge in today’s labour market.

Larger enterprises hire a dedicated DPO to service their risk mitigation requirements, yet many smaller organisations can be adequately serviced by a DPO Officer working on a part-time basis.. Our DPO team is able to perform their tasks independently and efficiently and can deliver their services on a full-time, part-time or remote basis. The team has a mix of backgrounds and can support your organisation in both data protection readiness, upon incidents, investigations and inquiries as well as with deep technical or legal topics.
