Our consultants work alongside your existing team and adapt the level of support as your requirements change. That might mean a defined consultancy project, additional resource for your internal DPO or a fully outsourced service.

Supporting Data Protection Teams in Practice

Caraffi

When Caraffi first partnered with us in 2022, the focus was on establishing a strong foundation for data protection as the business continued its rapid growth. Five years later, that relationship has evolved alongside both the organisation and the wider regulatory landscape. Read the full case study. 

“Having Evalian conduct the initial audit, develop policies aligned to our business practices, deliver initial training and just generally be on hand for help and guidance has built confidence across the business hugely.”

Ithaca Partners

Ithaca Partners engaged Evalian to provide ongoing outsourced DPO support and practical AI governance guidance. Through a tailored approach, we helped the firm strengthen compliance, navigate evolving regulatory requirements and adopt AI responsibly. Read the full case study. 

“Evalian invested time upfront in understanding our business. Because of that, the advice always feels relevant and proportionate to our business rather than generic compliance guidance.”

GDPR Support FAQs

What does a GDPR consultant do?

A GDPR consultant helps you understand and manage your data protection obligations. This can include compliance audits, policies, DPIAs, contracts, data mapping, subject access requests, personal data breaches and ongoing advice.

Do we need an outsourced DPO or GDPR consultancy?

It depends on the level of responsibility and support you need. Consultancy can be used for individual projects or additional expertise, while an outsourced DPO provides an ongoing DPO function. We can help you establish which is appropriate.

Can you support our existing DPO or privacy team?

Yes. Many organisations use our consultants to provide additional capacity or specialist advice alongside an internal DPO, legal team or compliance function.

How much does GDPR consultancy cost?

The cost depends on the scope and complexity of the work. We can work on an hourly or daily basis, agree a fixed project fee or provide pre-paid blocks of consultancy time. We’ll normally scope your requirements first and provide clear pricing before work begins.

Can you help with a specific GDPR issue rather than ongoing support?

Yes. You can use our consultants for standalone requirements including audits, DPIAs, subject access requests, breaches, policies, international transfers and other data protection matters.

Do you work with organisations outside the UK?

Yes. We support organisations in the UK and internationally and can advise on UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, PECR, EU GDPR and relevant overseas privacy requirements.
