DPO Services and Data Governance Support
Virtual DPO services, advisory support, and data governance for UK organisations that need privacy expertise on hand without the overhead of a full-time hire.
Data Protection Officer Services for UK Organisations
Our DPO services cover the work that sits around the DPO role: advisory support, data governance, policy and documentation, staff training, and DPIA guidance. Use them to support an in-house DPO, back up a privacy lead who has other duties, or build the programme your compliance work runs on.
Need a Named Acting DPO?
If you need a named acting DPO whose contact details go directly to the ICO and data subjects, that's our formal outsourced DPO service.
Article 37 Applicability?

Governance Responsibility
Our team advises, monitors, and drafts. Your organisation stays in total control and remains responsible for complying with UK GDPR.

Comprehensive privacy advisory modules that plug directly into your business operations.
DPIA and Privacy Risk Support
We guide your teams through Data Protection Impact Assessments, from screening a project to scoring risks and designing mitigations. Where a full Article 35 assessment is needed, our DPIA service covers it end to end.
Data Protection Advisory
Expert support on data protection strategy, covering data minimisation, access controls, retention, and encryption. Bring us in for a specific question or keep us on hand for ongoing advice.
Data Governance & Documentation
We build and maintain the records your compliance programme depends on: records of processing activities (RoPA), privacy notices, retention schedules, data sharing agreements, and internal policies.
Training and Awareness
Tailored data protection training for your staff, covering UK GDPR, individual rights, and day-to-day responsibilities. We also support your teams on rights requests (DSARs) and complaints when questions come up.
Incident Response Support
When a breach happens, we help you assess it, meet the 72-hour reporting deadline where it applies, and document what you did. Urgent or out-of-hours support is charged separately.
