Why PwC?
A Multidisciplinary Team
Personal Data Protection is not just a matter of law. The Law on Personal Data Protection (the Law) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) require from managers and data controllers to implement certain organisational and technical measures to secure full compliance with the requirements of the new regulation.
PwC provides Clients with a wide range of personal data protection specialists. Our Specialist Team comprises attorneys-at-law, and risk management and data analysis specialists.
GDPR and Data Analysis Tools
PwC’s GAP Analysis Tool (G.A.T.) is a tool developed by PwC intended for GDPR. The tool can also be applied to the Law to test if your organisation is ready to comply with the requirements of both the GDPR and the Law.
Our report provides insight into enterprise architecture compliance and its readiness to follow the principles of data protection.
Our experience in GDPR projects
We have experience with GDPR projects across numerous industries. Our experts provide in-house training to employees, build new solutions, and work side by side with experts within PwC’s Global Personal Data Protection Network.
PwC Global Personal Data Protection Network
We are proud to be part of PwC’s Global Personal Data Protection Network. Being part of our Global Network, we are able to gain experience, draw on our resources and share knowledge within the Network.
Considering that both the GDPR and the Law prescribe a unique approach to managers and data controllers, we are able to take advantage of our Global Network.
