What sets us apart?

Privacy-as-a-service is more than outsourcing.

We combine:

  • Legal depth
  • Practical implementation power
  • Governance expertise
  • International transfer knowledge
  • Integration with broader compliance issues (AI Act, NIS2)
  • Flexible deployment

If there is an additional need for other individual services, this can be arranged in combination with Privacy-as-a-service (DTIA-as-a-service, AI Act compliance, GDPR e-learning, etc.).

We operate as an extension of your organization; not as an external helpdesk.

When is an external DPO or PO advisable?

An external DPO or Privacy Officer is appropriate when:

  • The AVG makes this mandatory
  • Independent supervision is required
  • Internal expertise is missing
  • There is a need for scalable support
  • Governance and audit require extra security

We fulfill the DPO role in accordance with AVG articles 37—39, including an independent reporting line.

We draw on our broad expertise to fill the crucial role of DPO for companies professionally.
