GDPR Protection
Navigate GDPR Complexity — Protect EU Customer Data and Avoid Devastating Fines
Since May 2018, any company processing personal data of EU residents must comply with GDPR's comprehensive requirements—regardless of where your business is located.
GDPR fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of global annual revenue, whichever is greater. In 2023, Meta was fined €1.2 billion for improper data transfers. Amazon paid €746 million for consent violations. Even mid-sized companies face multi-million euro fines.
GDPR compliance builds customer trust, opens EU market opportunities, and strengthens your overall data security posture. Privacy is now a competitive advantage.
We help businesses of all sizes achieve and maintain GDPR compliance with practical, cost-effective solutions. From initial gap assessments to ongoing compliance monitoring, we guide you through every step of the GDPR journey.

The 7 Key GDPR Principles
GDPR requires that all processing of personal data adhere to seven fundamental principles. We help you implement processes and controls to meet each one.
Lawfulness, Fairness, and Transparency
Process data lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner. Clearly inform individuals about data collection and use.
Purpose Limitation
Collect data for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes only. Don't use data for incompatible purposes later.
Data Minimization
Collect only data that is adequate, relevant, and limited to what's necessary for the stated purposes.
Accuracy
Ensure personal data is accurate and kept up to date. Erase or rectify inaccurate data without delay.
Storage Limitation
Keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
Integrity and Confidentiality
Process data securely with appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect against unauthorized access.
Accountability
Take responsibility for compliance and be able to demonstrate compliance with all GDPR principles through documentation and controls.
Data Subject Rights Under GDPR
GDPR grants EU residents extensive rights over their personal data. You must have processes in place to fulfill these requests within 30 days (or explain why you need an extension).
Right of Access
Individuals can request a copy of all personal data you hold about them and information about how it's being processed.
Right to Rectification
Individuals can request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to Erasure ('Right to be Forgotten')
Under certain circumstances, individuals can request deletion of their personal data.
Right to Data Portability
Individuals can request their data in a structured, machine-readable format to transfer to another service.
Right to Restrict Processing
Individuals can request that you limit how you process their data under certain circumstances.
Right to Object
Individuals can object to processing for direct marketing, research, or when processing is based on legitimate interests.
