Most privacy programmes have gaps. Let's find yours before the regulator does.
A data privacy consulting practice for companies that build digital products: SaaS, e-commerce, fintech, health tech, and connected devices. We build privacy programmes that hold up under regulatory scrutiny across GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA, DPDPA, PDPL, and the EU AI Act. DPO services, DPIAs, transfer frameworks, and certification, delivered as a service.
First half-hour is free. No obligations.

Sound familiar?
Most companies come to us when one of these hits.
Privacy compliance isn't hard because the rules are secret, it's hard because the gap between what you think you have and what you actually need is invisible until it isn't.
Your platform processes EU personal data but you've never done a DPIA.
Customers or procurement teams are asking for compliance documentation you don't have.
You're expanding into EU or UK markets and don't know where to start.
You want GDPR Art. 42 certification as a commercial differentiator.
Your legal team handles contracts, but privacy requires a different kind of specialist.
Any of these sound like you? Take the free two-minute readiness check , no email required, or book a free call and we'll tell you exactly where you stand and what needs to happen first.
How it works
From first call to compliant.
Step 01
Discovery call
We look at what you process, where it goes, what's in place, and what's missing. You leave the call with a clear picture of your exposure, not a sales deck.
Step 02
Gap assessment & plan
A prioritised list of what needs to be built, fixed, or documented, with honest guidance on what order matters and why.
Step 03
Delivery
We build what's needed: DPIAs, transfer agreements, certification readiness, DSAR programmes, or ongoing DPO coverage. Documented, defensible, done.
Services
What we deliver.

Regulatory coverage
Both sides of the EU–India data corridor. And beyond.
A practice qualified in both EU and Indian matters, which means GDPR and DPDPA are covered natively, not second-hand. Around that corridor we work across the UK, US, Gulf, and APAC regimes your data flows actually touch.
GDPR
Core practice: programme builds, DPIAs, Art. 28 DPAs, transfers, and Art. 42 certification.

How we engage
Three ways to work with us.
Every engagement is scoped on the discovery call, no retainer lock-ins, no surprise invoices.
Project-based
Fixed-scope, fixed-deliverable work: a DPIA, an international transfer suite, certification readiness, or privacy notice remediation. You know exactly what you get and when.
Typical: 2–6 weeks per deliverable
Appointed DPO
Formal DPO appointment under Art. 37 GDPR on an ongoing retainer, full-time, fractional, or interim. Regulatory correspondence, governance, and continuous oversight included.
Typical: monthly retainer
Advisory & audits
Gap assessments, vendor and DPA reviews, DSAR surge support, and team training. The flexible layer for teams that need expertise on tap, not a full programme build.
Typical: ad-hoc or recurring
Who we help
Built for companies that process real data at real scale.
We work with product, engineering, and legal teams at companies that build digital products, typically ones that have grown fast, started selling into regulated markets, and realised their compliance programme hasn't kept pace. The work is practical, not theoretical.

Engagement
Mandatory DPO + GDPR Art. 42 certification
Took a B2B SaaS platform from zero privacy documentation to full GDPR certification readiness, full DPIA programme, a complete international transfer suite (EU SCCs, UK IDTA, and supporting agreements), and privacy notice compliance across multiple regulatory regimes.
Read the full case studyDocumented outcomes
Results from real engagements.
Client names remain confidential. Outcomes are documented and verifiable.
DPIA · GDPR Art. 35
Mandatory DPIA obligation identified
A B2B SaaS platform had never been told a DPIA was legally required under Art. 35, a core processing operation independently triggered the obligation. The gap assessment flagged it in week one, before regulatory exposure could materialise.
EU SCCs · UK IDTA · IGDTA
International transfer suite built from scratch
Multi-jurisdiction transfer routes had no documentation at all. A full IGDTA covering three SCC modules, a UK IDTA, and supporting agreements for non-EU destinations was drafted and executed.
Privacy notices · Multi-jurisdiction
Privacy notice remediated end-to-end
A B2B privacy notice audit identified gaps across GDPR, UK GDPR, and applicable non-EU privacy regimes, mandatory disclosure gaps, retention inconsistencies, and missing jurisdictional coverage, all resolved.
Art. 42 · EuroPrivacy
GDPR Art. 42 certification programme launched
From no compliance documentation to EuroPrivacy certification readiness, full DPA suite, DPIA programme, and certification-ready evidence across every applicable jurisdiction.
FAQ
Common questions.
If your processing involves large-scale tracking, sensitive data categories, or systematic monitoring, you almost certainly do under Art. 35 GDPR. The EDPB has published nine criteria; meeting two or more triggers a mandatory DPIA. We assess this in the discovery call.
EuroPrivacy certification is a third-party-verified signal that your platform meets GDPR requirements. Increasingly, enterprise customers and procurement teams require it. It also demonstrates due diligence to regulators and strengthens your position in DPA negotiations.
A DPIA for a well-scoped platform typically takes two to four weeks end-to-end. International transfer documentation depends on the number of routes and counterparties, a single IGDTA covering multiple modules runs three to six weeks. Certification programmes are longer engagements.
A DPO is a formally appointed function under Art. 37 GDPR, independent, with direct regulatory obligations. A consultant advises and delivers. Some engagements need both. We provide appointed DPO services, full-time, fractional, or interim, for companies that need the formal appointment.
If you offer goods or services to EU residents, or monitor their behaviour, GDPR applies regardless of where you're incorporated. The same extraterritorial logic applies under UK GDPR and increasingly under DPDPA (India). We work across all of these.
