Data Protection & Privacy

GDPR compliance for organisations handling personal, health, and AI data, including privacy by design, DPIAs, international transfer mechanisms, breach response, and data governance.

Life-sciences organisations handle some of the most sensitive personal data there is, clinical, health, and increasingly AI-derived. We help you process it lawfully and defensibly under the EU and UK GDPR.

How we help

  • Privacy governance: records of processing (RoPA), policies, and accountability frameworks.
  • Data protection by design and by default across products, trials, and digital health.
  • Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for high-risk and AI-driven processing.
  • International data transfers: SCCs, the UK IDTA / Addendum, and transfer risk assessments.
  • Data-subject rights, transparency, and lawful bases in a clinical and research context.
  • Personal data breach assessment, response, and regulator engagement.

Why it matters

Regulatory and data protection obligations increasingly intersect, in clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, connected devices, and AI. Getting privacy right protects participants and patients, and keeps products and programmes moving.
