ABOUT DPAS
At Data Privacy Advisory Service, we envision a future where organisations not only achieve compliance with data protection laws but also champion data protection principles. We strive to create an environment where data protection is deeply valued and seamlessly integrated into every aspect of business operations.
Our mission is to engage, educate, and empower businesses through our internationally renowned consultancy, and engaging training programs, ensuring they are well-equipped to navigate the ever changing world of data protection, AI, and information security.
We are committed to supporting businesses in achieving their organisational objectives and goals by transforming compliance from an obstacle into a value-added asset.
We believe in finding solutions, not limitations, and are dedicated to providing an exceptionally high standard of service. Our unwavering commitment to an organisation’s success drives everything we do.

Keeping up to date with changes in data protection regulations, and best practices, can often be challenging for organisations. By outsourcing to an expert consultancy, like us, organisations can access data protection professionals and lawyers who stay current with the latest developments, case law, and have the subject matter expertise to support your organisation.
We are extremely competitive, and our work consistently exceeds our customers’ expectations. Instead of hiring and maintaining an in-house team or seeking external legal advice, we’ll work closely with you to develop a customised plan that meets your specific needs, and budget. With DPAS you get legal advice for a consultancy price.
We work with you to identify any potential threats and take steps to mitigate them, reducing the risk of reputational damage and compliance fines. With our up to date knowledge on current issues facing data protection and information security we can take proactive measures to safeguard your data.
Outsourcing allows your organisation to scale up requirements as needed, without the commitment of a full-time, or part time, employee. We have the capacity and capability to hit the ground running and support your organisation whenever you need it, so you can focus on your core business activities, whilst we ensure that your data protection requirements are being met.
We have a wealth of experience delivering data protection and information security projects and training, to public, private, and third, sectors. We understand that each organisation faces its own challenges, and always provide tailored solutions to meet your specific requirements. We have consultants based around the UK and Internationally, so wherever you are based, we can help.
DPAS began 8 years ago when Nigel was working for a large financial services customer as a Programme Manager, running their entire GDPR programme of work. Having worked in data protection for many years, Nigel wanted to create a Consultancy Business that was different to the big players.
He wanted to give companies the opportunity to work with a consultancy that is pragmatic, thinks outside the box, and supports business objectives whilst complying with data protection law.
Nigel met Melanie, our CEO, at Starbucks 7 years ago with his big idea, and then DPAS began. Melanie and Nigel have worked tirelessly over the past 7 years building a well-known business in the data protection industry, and have won multiple large tenders with public and private sector organisations.
It was always important to both Nigel and Melanie that we created a business that looked after their customers and staff with the same care, attention and compassion. Every client and every employee is equally valued, and our team are extremely proud of the work that we have done and continue to deliver all over the world.
DPAS is extremely proud of the team we have and the opportunities that we provide in Devon. Aside from our very experienced team of Consultants and Data Protection Officers, we provide apprenticeship opportunities to junior members of staff, without a background in data protection wanting to get into the Industry.
We love to train, mentor and promote from within the team and support those with a passion for data protection to grow with DPAS or within the Industry.
At a recent away day with all of our staff, we asked the team why they continue to work for DPAS and what made them want to work for DPAS. Some of the comments we received back were; opportunity, flexibility, ethics, diversity, equality, collaboration, recognition, transparency, empowerment, fun, high standard, caring, understanding, supportive, professional, informal and appreciated.
You can be assured that if you decide to work with DPAS you will be working with employees that are valued, experts in their field and that always put their customers first.
