What Our Clients Say

Scott’s detailed knowledge of data protection and the GDPR was crucial for the success of the project. He investigated the relationship between GDPR and research and used this to produce quality documentations to meet the timeframe of the project.

David, Higher Education

I have worked with Scott to both understand what was required for a new UK company had to do to comply with GDPR requirements. This included calls and explanations to our Hong Kong office to explain the requirements that were needed in order for us to comply and register with the ICO and World-pay. He did a great job in explaining it simply to both me and to the team whose second language was English.

Janice, Technology Services

Scott impressed me with his ability to convey the principles and requirements of privacy law and how they support the enterprise to all areas of the business thus turning the topic into an advantage rather than an inhibitor. Always aware of the pressure of business realities, Scott has the ability to find the best workable approach to meet all needs
