We offer check-ups for business to make sure personal data processing follows all applicable rules and laws in the relevant area and jurisdiction. Depending on the wishes, an audit can be carried out in relation to the company as a whole, some individual processes or information systems.

Therefore, it is crucial to identify all the difficulties that have accumulated over a long time, find business-oriented solutions for them and simplify the further work with personal data for company employees.
→ Global business: When a business is already at this level of development, the main issue is to follow the rules correctly in terms of cross-border transfer, database storage and coordination of various obligations between different jurisdictions.
