Our Services
HelloDPO Solutions delivers everything from completely outsourcing your Data Protection Officer (DPO), to calling in our team to provide a helping hand with your data protection workload. Our core services include:
At HelloDPO Solutions we offer a competitively priced hassle-free package that allows you to completely outsource your DPO on an interim or permanent basis.
With a shortage of data protection experts in the market, our team are on hand to take the weight off your shoulders.
We can raise awareness of data protection within your organisation, ensure that all individuals receive appropriate training on their obligations under data protection laws, advise on data protection compliance requirements for all major projects involving personal data, contribute to and write data protection board reports, review and advise on data protection impact assessments, and liaise with supervisory authorities and individuals regarding data protection queries and complaints.
Our team at our sister company HelloDPO Law can also create a data protection mentoring programme for your existing team and throughout your organisation to help upskill them to become your DPO, data protection manager or a data protection champion now, or in the future.
If you don’t wish to completely outsource your DPO, but need a helping hand keeping your company data protection compliant, our pick and mix approach to our services ensures our support is tailored to your specific needs, here are some of the services we can support with:
We can audit your policies and procedures and up-date and operationalise them to keep them compliant or we can create easy-to-use, short, simple and workable policies and procedures based on your organisation’s needs.
Our bank of templates can be tailored to ensure that your teams have clear guidance on their data protection obligations and the steps they must take to ensure compliance.
Our team at our sister company HelloDPO Law can also train your team on how to roll out policies and procedures, including communications plans to ensure these are understood by all your team and are in the right way in your organisation.
Privacy management frameworks provide an overview of your legal responsibilities, the measures you have in place to ensure compliance with data protection and how you monitor whether those measures are working as expected.
We will work with you to review your current privacy management programme or create a new one based on our assessment of your organisation’s privacy needs, data processing activities and compliance requirements.
Effective learning is a fundamental part of any organisation’s compliance programme. HelloDPO has developed a robust data protection eLearning programme that offers essential data protection learning alongside additional modules covering privacy-related issues specific to HR and marketing, general accountability, data breach management and data sharing.
This suite of GDPR eLearning modules for your workforce can be completed at their own pace, with the option to allocate eLearning modules to specific users, set reminders for your team, all supported by an easy-to-use dashboard to help track participation and completion rates.
Our sister company HelloDPO Law is also on hand to deliver bespoke 121 data protection mentoring for individuals, in addition to an in-depth data protection training programme for groups. These data protection training offerings are delivered by world-class data protection lawyers.
Preparing your record of processing activities (ROPA) can seem like a daunting task. Not sure where to start or how to approach this? Our team has a wealth of experience working with organisations of all sizes utilising everything from various sophisticated online tools to simple spreadsheets.
Once we have prepared your ROPA, we will set up processes within your organisation to keep this up-to-date, ensuring that any changes to how your organisation uses personal data are documented on your ROPA and fed into other vital documents, such as your privacy notices and special policy documents.
Being at the forefront of the data protection industry, we can offer you the most up to date and sound data protection advice to protect your company effectively moving forward. As a complimentary service, we also distribute a monthly easy to read e-digest outlining the most important data protection news to land that month and our advise on what to do next.
We do the work, so you don’t have to. We will adapt our services to cater for the changes in new legislation, to make the transition as seamless as possible. You can rest easy that it is all in hand. We work with organisations whose processing is governed by both the EU and UK regimes and so we are well placed to help you navigate these challenges.
The core services we advertise are a snapshot of the support we can provide to you and your team. With our vast experience and fresh and simplistic approach to data protection we can tailor our services to meet any of your data protection needs.
