Data protection expertise for your sector

Every sector has its own data protection profile — different types of personal data, different risks, different regulatory overlays. We tailor our services to your industry’s specific challenges.

Sector

Healthcare & Social Care

Healthcare providers, care homes, mental health services, and social care organisations process special category data at scale — health records, safeguarding information, and clinical notes attracting the highest regulatory protection under Article 9. For many healthcare SMEs, DPO designation is mandatory under Article 37(1)(c).

  • Special category health data with appropriate legal bases and safeguards
  • Data sharing with NHS bodies and local authorities under data sharing agreements
  • Complex DSARs involving clinical records and multi-agency data
  • Breach management with CQC reporting alongside ICO notification
  • DPIAs for new care technologies and electronic patient records

Sector

Financial Services

FCA-authorised firms operate in a dual-regulated environment where data protection sits alongside financial conduct obligations. My eight years of banking-sector experience means I understand this landscape from the inside.

Dual regulatory reporting

Managing the ICO/FCA intersection — breach notification to both regulators, operational resilience, and consumer duty data obligations.

International transfers

Group data flows and third-party processing across jurisdictions — assessed with UK IDTA and UK Addendum implementation.

High-volume DSARs

Complex requests spanning multiple systems, involving legal privilege and careful exemption assessment.

Technology & SaaS

SaaS providers often process personal data as a processor, triggering Article 28 obligations. Your clients’ procurement teams increasingly demand evidence of your data protection maturity.

Processor compliance

Building Article 28 compliance: DPAs, sub-processor management, security documentation, breach procedures that satisfy enterprise due diligence.

AI & automated decision-making

DPIAs for AI features, Article 22 transparency, bias assessment, and navigating evolving ICO guidance on AI and data protection.

Charities & Not-for-Profits

Charities working with vulnerable beneficiaries process some of the most sensitive data of any sector — yet often operate with the leanest compliance infrastructure.

Funder & partner data sharing

Data sharing agreements with funders, local authorities, NHS bodies, and partner organisations with clear legal bases.

Volunteer data management

Extending data protection training and policies to cover volunteer workforces handling personal data.

Sector

Professional Services

Solicitors, accountancy practices, and IFAs hold client confidential data alongside personal data — often acting as processor for clients’ data while also being a controller for their own. This dual role creates compliance complexity requiring specialist understanding.

Sector

Education

Schools, academies, and FE providers process children’s data — attracting enhanced protections under the UK GDPR and the ICO’s Age Appropriate Design Code. Parental consent, safeguarding data, SEN records, and data sharing with local authorities create sector-specific challenges.
