GDPR EU Representative
As a Service
If your company is regularly processing data from customers in the EU and if your company does not yet have a physical presence in the EU, then steps should be taken immediately to investigate and where necessary appoint a local EU GDPR Representative.
Smaare Consulting has teamed up with a market leading GDPR representative service for companies that do not have a physical presence in the EU but who do have customers in the EU. We have co-designed this service specifically for companies that wish to prepare for GDPR compliance but who do not wish to deal with the administrative headaches involved.
