Our quest is to ensure data protection is not a tick-box or superficial task in companies. We typically work with legal departments bringing skills and competences that many legal professionals lack. We help overcome the perception that data protection is solely a legal issue. The legal bias can block the potential in some companies to frame data protection as a business imperative. Data protection is not all about articles, recitals, interpretation, case law, etc. All of those things are very important, without a doubt. But if data protection in your company remains theoretical, and there continues to be a disconnect between data protection leadership and the other business functions, data protection will never become living and breathing.
