Practical Data Protection Services

Our data protection services help organisations understand, manage and improve their approach to personal data. We tailor support to the organisation's circumstances, whether the requirement is a focused piece of work or wider assistance across governance, compliance and risk. We start with the specific data protection requirement facing your organisation and understand the wider context.

We then provide the appropriate combination of advice, assessment, documentation and implementation support, whether you require help with a particular issue or broader privacy arrangements. By considering these areas together, organisations can avoid treating individual privacy issues in isolation and develop a more consistent approach to data protection.

Incident and Breach Readiness

Data protection can involve responding to incidents as well as preventing them. We provide data breach management and data breach support alongside audits, risk assessments, DPIAs, DSARs, policies, training and other privacy activities, helping organisations respond clearly and improve after incidents.

Our data protection services include GDPR consultancy, DPO services, audits, risk assessments, DPIAs, data mapping, privacy documentation, training, DSAR support, data breach management, data breach support and AI data protection.

Build Sustainable Privacy Practices

Good data protection needs to work in day-to-day operations. We help organisations strengthen governance, accountability, staff awareness and practical controls, so privacy becomes part of normal decision-making rather than a separate compliance exercise.

Joined-Up Data Protection Support

Our data protection services are suitable for organisations requiring focused support with a specific privacy issue as well as organisations looking for broader assistance across governance, compliance and risk management.

Managing Privacy Across the Organisation

We provide joined-up data protection services rather than treating individual privacy issues in isolation. Our approach focuses on practical risk identification, proportionate solutions and implementation.

From our experience

Ongoing support at scale

For one of the UK's largest government departments, our team set up a data protection compliance platform from scratch, onboarded and trained its users, and managed its day-to-day operation, so the department can report on its compliance internally and across government.
