Our solutions

In response to the rapid uptick in breaches involving personal data, the public’s expectations of privacy are evolving. More privacy regulations are coming into effect at the local, national, international, and sectoral levels. In addition to the EU’s GDPR, various other privacy laws were passed including the CCPA, CPRA, Brazil’s General Data Privacy Law, and India’s Personal Data Protection Bill. As these privacy regulations come into effect, companies are quickly recognizing that effective privacy management is not just a key compliance activity but also a key factor in business enablement in the digital economy.

As a data privacy compliance company, we can assist with assessing your company's compliance with relevant privacy regulations. Through the implementation of best practices, we can help your company achieve broader privacy risk and compliance objectives across your enterprise. Our team of experienced GDPR compliance service consultants can review your company’s personal data collecting activities to build a data inventory, identify risks and gaps, provide recommendations on addressing those gaps, and support the implementation of your privacy requirements.

GDPR

Our GDPR compliance services can assist with assessing your company’s compliance with the EU's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") requirements. The regulation, which entered into force on 25 May 2018, applies to EU-established organisations that process personal data, as well as organizations located outside of the EU that process EU residents’ personal data in connection with the offering of goods and services or that monitor the behaviour of EU residents.

CCPA

We can assess your company’s data privacy compliance with CCPA  and CPRA requirements and provide recommendations to address deficiencies.

Other Regulatory Frameworks

  • Brazil's Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD)
  • Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA)
  • State-specific breach notification laws
  • National privacy laws around the globe
GDPR Awareness Training

Our web-based training course provides businesses of all sizes with an effective and comprehensive review of GDPR requirements. The course is designed to ensure your staff gain a broad understanding of their role in meeting GDPR requirements.

We offer two types of GDPR compliance service training: one designed for all business, and one designed for private equity/venture capital/credit fund managers.

 

GDPR Vendor Diligence

We can help determine if your vendors are compliant with GDPR requirements, working towards compliance, or have not considered the implications of GDPR. Our vendor management platform includes a GDPR-specific due diligence questionnaire that can be administered as a standalone questionnaire at a reduced rate, or as part of the standard ACA Aponix vendor DDQ.
