Data Protection compliance and support from experts with decades of experience.
Data Protection Services
Data Protection is a key business area that requires expertise and knowledge to ensure practices are good and up to the standards required by both UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act (2018). The Data Protection Act 2018 is aimed at ensuring personal data on individuals is adequately secured. But how well do you comply with those requirements as a business? Do you have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) or Senior Responsible Individual (SRI)?
The effect on your business of not following best practices can be far-reaching. If you are fined for a breach of the Act, not only do you stand to lose £000s but the damage to your reputation through PR, media, and word of mouth could be devastating. We are experienced in the confidential and expert support handling of the aftermath of a data breach and any subsequent investigations.
