By completing this questionnaire, we’ll be able to assess:

  1. the impact of applicable data protection laws (like the POPI Act and GDPR) on your organisation, and
  2. the best way forward – what action will meet the requirements of your organisation.

Based on the information you provide, we’ll either send you an email with next steps to take or set up an online meeting with you to discuss the most suitable solution for you and your organisation. We’ll help you decide what your next steps are for your organisation. We respect your privacy. For more see our Privacy Policy. Please note that this is an organisational impact assessment, which is different to a data protection impact assessment.

Jump right in. (It will take you about 4 minutes to complete).
