"Data processing activities rarely remain static"
In today's interconnected digital landscape, businesses face an increasingly complex web of data protection regulations that span continents and industries. As companies expand their global footprint, navigating the intricate maze of international data privacy laws—from the European Union's GDPR to California's CCPA, Brazil's LGPD, and emerging regulations across Asia and Africa—has become a critical challenge that can make or break an organization's reputation and financial stability. Our data protection consultancy stands at the forefront of this critical field, providing comprehensive guidance that transforms regulatory compliance from a daunting obstacle into a strategic advantage, ensuring that your business not only meets legal requirements but also builds trust with customers, partners, and stakeholders in an era where data privacy has become a fundamental corporate responsibility.

We provide comprehensive data protection services including privacy impact assessments, compliance audits, GDPR compliance strategies, data mapping, risk management, incident response planning, and ongoing privacy program development. Our services are designed to help organisations systematically identify, assess, and mitigate privacy-related risks.
If your organisation collects the following data points of employees, customers, business partners, etc. then you must comply with data protection legislation.
The following data has been considered as 'personal': Name, email, phone, passport, ID card, drivers licence, social media profiles, IP address, bank details, CCTV footage, image, video, sound, biometric data, race, ethnicity, religious beliefs (e.g. kosher, halal), sexual preferences, health and medical information (e.g. allergies, previous illnesses), cookies (on websites and apps), device information (e.g. browser type, kiss metrics, previous history, hardware serial number, location information), transactional data (amount placed, currency, profit/loss), comment fields, gambling addictions, mental disorders, private conversations and email/direct messages, number plates, employment and education history, salary, bonus amounts, holiday/annual/sick leave, right to work status, termination and suspension agreements, and much more.
The definition of 'personal data' is intentionally broad and is meant to cover any information related to a natural living being. Whereas, 'processing' covers any actions or set of actions which can be conducted on the data, including simply receiving it via email or viewing the information without recording it or reproducing for sharing purposes.
All companies processing data on a commercial basis is subject to the legislation and can attract high fines of 4% of the company's worldwide turnover or 20 million, whichever is higher.
It should be noted that Europe and UK are not the only jurisdictions enforcing strict privacy laws, global regulators are applying similar measures across all industries which capture data for the purposes of commercial revenue generation.
If your organisation collects any of the above data sets for revenue generation, it will be subject to either one or several data protection regulations. All companies must comply and even natural individuals (not associated with a company) have been personally fined for failing to uphold privacy rights of others.
Majority of fines issued by regulators are received by a single data subject complaint. These requests must be answered within a 30-day regulatory timeframe, and many companies have already been fined for not responding within this statutory period.
Without having an expert counsel by your side, any organisation would have difficulty navigating this complex legal and digital landscape. Get in touch with us today so we can demonstrate how your organisation can avoid fines and set yourself apart from the competition. It is becoming far more common for companies which have suffered data breaches to be named and shamed in global press newspapers. Avoid the embarrassment of failure and keep ahead of regulatory risk.
Since the enactment of GDPR in 2018, time for organisations to argue ignorance is over.
If your company has a large number of employees and customers, you will be most likely subject to comply with data protection laws of your local jurisdiction and that of your customers and employees. To ensure the full scope of risk and mitigation measures are offered in a tailored manner, an initial questionnaire will be shared under strict confidentiality. This information will be reviewed and specific offerings will be suggested in which the client can choose from.
