Which GDPR Option Is Right For You?
Whether you’re starting from scratch, struggling to make sense of GDPR, or bringing an established organisation up to date, we’ll help you find the right level of support.
Why our approach is different
GDPR isn’t difficult because the law is impossible to understand. It’s difficult because running a small business leaves very little time to work out how the law applies to the technology you use every day.
For over ten years we’ve been helping freelancers and small businesses tackle those practical challenges.
When we first started supporting businesses through GDPR, one of the biggest obstacles wasn’t writing a privacy policy or understanding the principles. It was answering practical questions like:
- Where is this software processing my data?
- Does this supplier transfer information outside the UK?
- What do I need to tell my customers?
- Which platforms should appear in my Records of Processing?
So we started doing the research.
Today the questions have changed. AI is being added to existing software, new platforms appear every month, and suppliers continually update the way they process information.
Our approach hasn’t changed.
We continue researching the practical GDPR questions our customers ask, turning complicated legal and technical information into clear guidance for small businesses. Some of that becomes public blogs. Some forms part of our ongoing support and GDPR Online programme.
Because good GDPR isn’t about collecting documents.
It’s about understanding what’s happening in your own business

I Know I Need a Privacy Policy
You know you need a Privacy Policy.
Perhaps you’ve copied bits from other websites, looked at templates online, or put it off because you’re not quite sure what should be included.
You have a nagging feeling that what you have now isn’t really right for your business, but you don’t want to spend days researching data protection law just to publish a Privacy Policy.
Our Data Privacy Policy options help you create and implement the documents most small online businesses need, with practical guidance written in plain English.
I Have the Documents but Still Have Questions
You have a Privacy Policy.
You may even have several GDPR documents.
But questions keep appearing
- Can I use this AI tool?
- What should I tell clients?
- What should I delete?
- What do I need to tell associates and subcontractors?
You want to do the right thing, but you don’t want to take a degree in data protection or spend your life writing policies.
The GDPR Online Programme helps owner-managed businesses understand how data protection applies to the way they actually work.
Designed to help you solve problems – not create more!
I Need Some Expert Input
Sometimes you don’t need a full review.
You just need an experienced professional to look at a particular issue, answer your questions or help you decide what to do next.
A Power Hour or targeted review can help you work through specific GDPR, AI or data protection issues without committing to a larger project.
Ideal if you need reassurance, clarity or a second opinion.
I Suspect We've Outgrown What We Have
You are not confused about GDPR.
You are busy.
The business has grown, systems have changed, team members have been added and regulations have evolved.
You suspect your GDPR arrangements need attention, but finding the time to work out what has changed feels like just another item on an already overcrowded list.
A GDPR Health Check helps identify what is working, what needs updating and where your priorities should be.
Often this is the fastest route forward for organisations with multiple team members, locations, systems, financial information, AML obligations or children’s data.
Health Checks currently start from £650 + VAT and are tailored to the size and complexity of your organisation.
I Need Ongoing Support
Some organisations need more than a Privacy Policy, a course or a one-off review.
As businesses grow, ongoing support, specialist advice, staff training and regular reviews can become part of good governance.
If your organisation needs ongoing support, we can help you identify the most appropriate next step following a Health Check, review or support session.
You Don't Need Everything At Once
Most businesses start in one of three places.
- If you need a Privacy Policy and supporting guidance, start with the Data Privacy Policy option.
- If you already have documents but want to understand how GDPR applies to your day-to-day business activities, the GDPR Online Programme is usually the next step.
- If you need reassurance, clarity or help with a specific issue, a Power Hour or review may be all you need.
- If your organisation has grown, has multiple team members, locations, systems, financial information, AML obligations or children's data, a GDPR Health Check is often the best place to begin.
Additional reviews, Power Hours, one-to-one support, training and ongoing support can be added later if needed.
