Ensure Compliance with our Data Transfer Risk Assessment Support

Does your organisation transfer personal data internationally? Are you struggling to ensure compliance with all the changes to legislation? That’s where we can help. We understand that not every organisation has the capability, capacity, or resources to tackle legal issues. DPAS provides bespoke, high quality and cost-effective services related to international data transfers. Our team is here to do the work for you, allowing you to focus on other business activities.

Outsourcing your compliance issues to us will help ensure your organisation is appropriately tackling legal issues, minimising risk, and improve operational efficiency. Our services include developing Transfer Risk Assessments (TRAs), Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), UK Addendums, supplier assurance assessments, and International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) for your organisation. We can also provide supplier assessments, where we engage with processors and/or third parties to assess their processing activities and security measures, ensuring they comply with not only the law, but the standards your organisation upholds. 

Your work is handled by our experienced and legally qualified team of experts who have hands-on experience dealing with the complications when transferring personal data internationally. We will work closely with you to understand your specific needs and help you achieve compliance.

Our prices start from as little as £1000. Get in touch with us today to see if our transfer risk assessment support is the right fit for your organisation.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Easy to understand data privacy and information security services that are always accessable, consistenty pragmatic and continually exceeding expectations.

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.

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 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.

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.
