Just before GDPR became enforceable in May 2018, marketers panicked and many abandoned their activity, Privacy Helper was formed to help businesses of all sizes navigate the complex, and sometimes, daunting legislation that now exists to, rightly, protect your customer or client data. Many data protection consultancies believe in a one-size fits all solution but our ethos at Privacy Helper is very different. We pride ourselves on quality, detail and professionalism – and it is these components that our clients relate to, which is why they like working with us. While data protection legislation, like GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, is the same for each company, we understand that every organisations’ use of personal data is unique. This means we can explain your obligations as data controllers in a detailed yet meaningful way to you, as business owners, whatever your sector or size. Answering questions like: • Can I send emails? • Can I use telemarketing? • What constitutes consent? • I’ve received a letter from the ICO, what do I do now? We can also analyse and advise on: • Your current IT set-up from the suitability of the machines and devices you are using. • The version of software for the specific processing activity. • What security measures you have in place to ensure the data is adequately protected against malicious access. • The data transfer mechanisms you use – internal and external. • Role-based access to systems across your business. • Your back-up provisions in the event of server failure. • Penetration testing. Should your needs be more complex, then we have other consultants in our network that have experience in a wide range of areas. Whatever you need, our teams are on hand to give your team the guidance you need to demonstrate your compliance with data protection legislation.
