Privacy law now reaches almost everything you do with personal information: how you collect it, where you store it, who you share it with, and how long you keep it. GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, the wave of new state laws, and sector rules like HIPAA and GLBA pile overlapping obligations on the same data. We help you build a privacy program that meets the rules that apply to you and still leaves room to run the business, designed by people who understand both the regulation and the systems behind it.
Figuring Out What Applies
Compliance starts with knowing which laws actually reach your data. We look at where you operate and process personal information, what categories you collect, what you do with it and why, whose data is involved and where those people live, and whether sector rules like HIPAA, GLBA, or COPPA come into play. From there we map your obligations. Most companies sit under several regimes at once, so we build one coordinated strategy instead of a separate scramble for each law.
Standing Up a Real Program
Durable compliance comes from structure, not from reacting to each new requirement as it surfaces. We help you put the pieces in place: governance that says who owns privacy decisions, written policies and procedures, a data inventory that tracks what you hold and how it moves, training that reaches the people who handle data, vendor controls for third-party processing, and an incident response plan for when something goes wrong. We size the program to your actual risk so it protects you without grinding operations to a halt.
Handling Data Subject Requests
Privacy laws give people rights over their own information: to see what you hold, to have it deleted or corrected, to receive it in a portable format, and to opt out of sales or certain processing. You need a reliable way to take in those requests, confirm who is asking, and answer within the statutory clock. We design intake and fulfillment processes that keep you compliant and do not bury your team, and we help you use tooling to handle volume as it grows.
Notice, Consent, and Vendors
Transparency and consent rules differ sharply by jurisdiction. GDPR demands freely given, specific, informed consent, while CCPA leans on opt-out rights for sales, and you have to manage both across every channel. We draft privacy notices that say what the law requires, set up consent and preference management that holds up under audit, and lock down third-party risk through data processing agreements, vendor diligence, and ongoing monitoring so obligations do not fall apart at your supplier boundary.
Cross-Border Transfers and Assessments
Moving personal data across borders triggers its own rules under GDPR and similar regimes. We structure transfers using Standard Contractual Clauses, Binding Corporate Rules, or adequacy decisions, run transfer impact assessments to confirm the protections hold, and keep an eye on the shifting law around EU-US data flows. We also help you run the privacy impact assessments many regulations require for higher-risk processing and document them in a way that demonstrates accountability and survives regulatory review.
