GDPR & Data-Protection Audit
Handle personal data the way European regulators expect.
GDPR isn't a checkbox — it's how your product collects, stores, shares and deletes personal data. I map your real data flows against GDPR and modern data-protection expectations, find where you're exposed, and give you a prioritised path to defensible compliance — the kind that survives a customer's security review or a regulator's question.
Who it's for
- Startups selling into the EU / UK or handling EU users' data
- Products storing personal, financial or health data
- Teams facing a DPA, security questionnaire, or customer audit
You probably need this if…
What I look at
- Personal-data inventory and data-flow mapping
- Lawful basis, consent and cookie handling
- Data retention, deletion and data-subject requests (DSAR)
- Third-party processors, sub-processors and cross-border transfers
- Security of processing and breach-readiness
- Privacy policy, DPA and record-of-processing gaps

Do I need to care about GDPR if I am not based in the EU?
Very likely yes. GDPR applies to anyone handling the personal data of people in the EU/UK — so if you have European users, customers or leads, it applies to you regardless of where you are based. Selling into Europe almost always means you are in scope.
What does a GDPR audit involve?
I map how your product actually collects, stores, shares and deletes personal data, then check it against GDPR and modern data-protection expectations: lawful basis and consent, retention and deletion, data-subject requests, third-party processors and transfers, security of processing, and your privacy policy and records. You get prioritised gaps and a realistic path to defensible compliance.
We are a small startup — is GDPR really our problem?
It becomes your problem the moment a customer sends a data-processing agreement or a security questionnaire, or a user asks for their data. Getting the basics right early is far cheaper than scrambling under a deal deadline — or explaining a breach you weren't prepared for.
A customer is asking us for a DPA and GDPR evidence — can you help us get ready?
Yes, this is a common trigger. I get you to a defensible position: a data-flow map, the gaps that matter ranked by risk, a remediation plan you can actually execute, and evidence you can put in front of the customer or partner asking for it.
Is a GDPR audit just legal box-ticking?
No — it is fundamentally technical. GDPR is about how your systems actually handle data, which is why an engineer who understands your architecture (and can see where data really flows) finds the exposure a checklist misses. I focus on the practical, technical reality, not paperwork theatre.
