Privacy Consulting for UK GDPR Compliance

We assist organizations in integrating UK GDPR requirements into their data processing activities. From lawful bases for processing to data minimization and retention policies, our advisory services help businesses align their privacy practices with regulatory expectations while maintaining operational efficiency.

Implementation of Privacy Principles in Data Processing

We advise on embedding key UK GDPR principles—such as purpose limitation, data minimization, and transparency—into your organization’s data processing activities. If your organization collects, stores, or transfers UK personal data, we can help implement safeguards to ensure compliance with legal and ethical standards.

Vendor Management

We assist organizations in managing relationships with data processors and service providers to ensure compliance with UK GDPR requirements. This includes drafting and reviewing data processing agreements (DPAs), conducting vendor risk assessments, and implementing contractual safeguards for data protection.

Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs)

VeraSafe conducts DPIAs to help organizations assess and mitigate privacy risks associated with high-risk data processing activities. Whether deploying new technologies, engaging in large-scale processing, or implementing automated decision-making, our DPIAs provide structured risk evaluations aligned with UK GDPR guidelines.

Updating Privacy Frameworks for UK GDPR Compliance

We support organizations in updating their privacy frameworks to align with UK GDPR requirements. This includes reviewing and revising privacy notices, consent mechanisms, data retention policies, and security measures to maintain compliance and build trust with stakeholders.

FAQs

What is the difference between UK GDPR Advisory Services and the UK GDPR Representative Program?

VeraSafe provides two distinct services to assist organizations with UK GDPR compliance:

  • UK GDPR Advisory Services: These services offer strategic support to help organizations understand the UK GDPR, identify potential risks, and implement the necessary procedures for data protection. We guide businesses on building effective data protection programs, staying up to date with evolving regulations, and mitigating non-compliance risks.
  • UK GDPR Representative Program: This program is specifically for non-UK-based organizations that need to designate a point of contact within the UK. The UK GDPR mandates that such businesses appoint a representative within the UK to handle communications with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and data subjects. VeraSafe acts as your official UK GDPR representative, ensuring that you remain compliant with UK data protection laws.

How can VeraSafe help with UK GDPR compliance?

VeraSafe helps organizations assess their current UK GDPR compliance status, implement the necessary procedures, and stay informed about any changes to the regulation. We provide strategic advice on how to mitigate risks and establish effective data protection practices, enabling your business to remain compliant.

What are the penalties for non-compliance with the UK GDPR?

Non-compliance with the UK GDPR can result in substantial fines, reputational damage, and increased regulatory scrutiny. VeraSafe helps businesses avoid these penalties by ensuring they meet all regulatory requirements and proactively manage data protection risks.

Does VeraSafe offer other advisory services besides UK GDPR compliance?

Yes, VeraSafe offers a comprehensive range of advisory services beyond UK GDPR compliance, including GDPR compliance, global privacy compliance, AI governance, Digital Service Act (DSA) compliance, policy and procedure drafting, and cybersecurity best practices.
