Your outsourced DPO service

Providing quality through expertise.

Introducing ProDPO

The role of the data protection officer (DPO) has allowed many organisations in the UK to modernise, digitalise and deliver their services, build trust of service users and transform their compliance culture. Yet, operational needs and available resources may not allow every organisation to appoint a permanent DPO.

Data protection compliance is crucial in:

  • service design and internal processes,
  • service delivery and customer services,
  • customer trust and long-term success, and
  • scalable business development and making informed strategic decisions.

The complexities of the practical application of data protection and the looming data protection claims for compensation, make it a challenging area of law and practice. 

We provide our clients:

  • an alternative to the challenges and cost of hiring a full time DPO;
  • a practical advisor for their busy operations and management teams; and
  • a flexible and responsive resource for compliance, legal and business advice.

In addition, our data protection compliance expertise helps our clients to deal with personal data breaches and to mitigate the risk of complaints and enforcement action.

Who needs to appoint a DPO?

The current requirements for mandatory DPO appointments are being reviewed by the Government. Generally, DPO appointments are mandatory for public authorities and for organisations involved in large scale or high risk data processing. However, many organisations have felt the need to appoint one or more data protection roles to tackle the increasingly complex and multifaceted compliance requirements.
