Ensuring your organisation complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and Data Protection Act 2018 and other relevant data protection and privacy laws is crucial. We provide thorough compliance audits, policy drafting, and ongoing support to help you meet your obligations and avoid potential penalties.
In the unfortunate event you suffer a data breach, our experts are on hand to provide immediate assistance. We guide you through the necessary steps, including notification procedures, mitigation strategies, and communication with regulatory bodies, to minimise impact and restore trust.
We also advise individuals who have been adversely affected by a personal data breach.
Understanding and respecting the rights of individuals (data subjects) is a cornerstone of data protection. We assist you in managing data subject access requests, rectification and erasure requests, and other rights-related issues efficiently and within legal timeframes.
Empowering your team with the knowledge and skills to handle data responsibly is essential. We offer bespoke training sessions and workshops to ensure your staff are aware of their roles and responsibilities in maintaining data protection standards.
We can conduct compliance audits to ensure you comply with your responsibilities under Data Protection legislation. For projects involving high-risk data processing activities, conducting a DPIA is a legal requirement.
