GDPR Compliance Support

Many SMEs use bespoke systems to store customer, student or staff data. I help align those systems with GDPR and related data protection requirements in a practical, proportionate way.

I’m not a law firm, but I can implement the technical and process changes your legal or compliance adviser recommends, and highlight common risks I see in real-world systems.

Typical GDPR-related work

  • Mapping what personal data is collected, where it is stored, and for how long
  • Implementing data retention and deletion routines within SQL Server
  • Adding or improving subject access request (SAR) export features
  • Supporting correction and right-to-erasure workflows where appropriate
  • Ensuring logs and debug data do not contain unnecessary personal data
  • Helping articulate technical measures in DPIAs and policy documents

Working with your legal advisers

I’m happy to work alongside your DPO, legal adviser or compliance consultant to implement GDPR-related changes in your bespoke systems, so the technology supports the policies rather than fighting against them.
