Your data protection officer has a lot of responsibility
-
Many organisations must have a DPO; some that don't need to may choose to have one to reassure customers or staff
-
Your DPO must be independent - they can't be a senior decision-maker or involved in performing data processing
-
It's a professional position that requires appropriate qualifications and experience
-
You're required to give the DPO the right level of support, authority and ongoing training
-
How will you fill this role?
How it works
You pay a fixed monthly fee based on your size and the nature of your processing. It covers all of the routine work of the DPO. You get a named individual contact supported by our team and resources. The service includes a set number of on-site visits as well as our assisted compliance and helpline services.
We maintain comprehensive documentation for you including a compliance dashboard as well as the necessary regulatory paperwork. Your DPO is available to you as needed to give advice and be involved in decision-making as required by legislation.
What else do you get?
All DPO customers get a discount on other work including document licences, on-site visits and training. You also receive our monthly update newsletter with analysis of changes in regulation and compliance, tips for improving your security and - if you’ve licensed our policy framework - suggested updates to policies and procedures.
