Easy Peasy GDPR - Starting a Business
The simple Guide to GDPR when starting a Business
Are you starting your business and not sure what you need to do about GDPR?
Do you want to know what you need to have in place?
Are you worried about getting it wrong and dealing with complaints and investigations?
Does it feel likes it's all too confusing and time consuming?
Starting a business is exciting and it can be very daunting trying to make sure you have everything in place. We often focus on the things we are good at and avoid the difficult things. GDPR can be really scary especially when you don't understand the language that is used and exactly what you need to do. When you are starting your business you don't have hours to spend on Google trying to find out what you need to do. Wouldn't it be great to have straightforward advice telling you what you need, no jargon, no fuss?

There are simple to implement step by step videos and checklists. Nothing complicated or onerous. You can tick the GDPR compliance box now.

Why work with me?
I've been working in data protection long before GDPR became a "thing".
I know one size does not fit all and that each business needs to clearly understand what works for them. I have supported hundreds of small businesses to make GDPR simple and work for their business.
I'm always happy to answer questions, even the ones you think are silly because I know that you need to be able to relate what you are told, to your business.
I created this guidance because we get so many inquiries from people who have spent ages looking to get GDPR right in their new business and can't find the information easily. I wanted to create something simple and cost effective.
