GDPR, for European customers.
If you sell into Europe, GDPR is the table stakes. Run it alongside LGPD with a single privacy team.
The plain-English version.
GDPR is the European Union General Data Protection Regulation. It applies to any organization processing personal data of EU residents, controllers, processors, and sub-processors.

Three lanes, readiness, implementation, audit support.
Readiness
Gap assessment against GDPR. Concrete plan with owners, dates, and effort.
Implementation
Policies, controls, evidence pipelines built into Vanta. AI drafts, experts review.
Audit support
We sit beside you in audit interviews and respond to evidence requests.
From kickoff to certification.
Kickoff
Slack channel live. Scope, stakeholders, baseline.
Readiness
Gaps closed, policies signed, evidence flowing.
Audit prep
Mock audit, control narratives, auditor selection.
Audit
External audit closed. Letter or report in hand.
“The Trust Architects ran our GDPR program end to end. We touched it for sign-off and stakeholder review. Everything else was on rails.”
GDPR questions we hear weekly.
How long does GDPR take?
Most customers complete a first audit in 60-90 days from kickoff. Larger programs run 4-6 months.
What does it cost?
Our retainer plus the external auditor's fee. We size it to your stage on the first call.
Do we need new tooling?
Vanta is our default. We can also work on Drata or Secureframe. No tooling change required if you're already on a platform.
Who runs the audit?
An independent EU-qualified auditor. We have preferred firms in Brazil, the US, and Europe.
Will this stand up to enterprise scrutiny?
Yes. We design programs that pass not only the audit but also the buyer's security team review afterward.
