GDPR Legal Services for SaaS Companies

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) sets a high bar for data privacy across the European Union (EU). At SaaSLaw, Robert Congelliere, our dedicated attorney, understands the specific challenges GDPR compliance presents for SaaS companies. He provides comprehensive guidance to ensure you operate within the GDPR framework, protect user data, and avoid potential sanctions.

Building a GDPR-Compliant Foundation:

  • GDPR Applicability Assessment: Determine whether your SaaS business processes the personal data of EU residents, triggering compliance obligations under GDPR.
  • Data Inventory & Mapping: Gain a clear understanding of the personal data you collect from EU residents, allowing for targeted GDPR compliance measures.
  • Privacy Policy & TOS Updates: Robert helps you revise your privacy policy and terms of service (TOS) to reflect GDPR requirements regarding user rights, data collection practices, and lawful basis for processing.

Empowering User Control Over Their Data:

  • User Rights Implementation: Develop clear processes to handle user requests related to GDPR’s provisions, including the right to access, right to rectification, right to erasure (right to be forgotten), and data portability rights.
  • Consent Management & Documentation: Ensure you obtain clear, informed, and freely given consent from EU residents for data collection, and maintain comprehensive documentation to demonstrate compliance.
  • Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs): Establish efficient procedures to handle DSARs from EU residents, providing them with the information they have the right to access under GDPR.

Maintaining Compliance & Minimizing Risk:

  • Recordkeeping & Documentation: Robert helps you develop a system for documenting your GDPR compliance efforts and maintaining a record of user requests and responses.
  • Data Security & Breach Response: Ensure your existing data security measures are robust enough to protect user data according to GDPR’s principles, and develop a plan to address potential data breaches in accordance with GDPR notification requirements.
  • Data Transfer Considerations: If you transfer EU resident data outside the EU, Robert helps you implement appropriate safeguards to ensure continued data protection.

Peace of Mind for Your Business:

  • GDPR Training & Awareness: Educate your team on GDPR requirements and empower them to handle user data responsibly.
  • Risk Mitigation Strategies: Proactively identify and mitigate potential GDPR compliance risks, minimizing the chance of fines or legal action from data protection authorities.
  • Building User Trust: Demonstrate your commitment to data privacy by adhering to GDPR regulations, fostering trust and loyalty with your EU user base.
