Could you share an example of a time when you came up with an innovation that improved how your legal team works and did not come at a large expense?

As a privacy and information security-focused legal professional, I have spearheaded several initiatives that have significantly impacted my organisation.

One of the innovations that I am particularly proud of is the implementation of an automated compliance platform. This platform has transformed the way our teams work, streamlining our compliance processes across different functions. We were able to manage compliance activities, track progress, and generate reports from a single platform. The best part is that this innovation did not come at a large expense, and it has been a cost-effective solution for our business.

The use of such a platform led to another significant result; SOC2 Type II and ISO27001 certifications. Achieving these certifications demonstrated our commitment to providing our clients with the highest level of security and privacy for their confidential data. It was a rigorous process that required attention to detail and an in-depth understanding of information security and compliance regulations.

Lastly, I proposed rebranding our company as a privacy-first organisation, emphasising our commitment to privacy and security. This effort was successful and had a significant impact on our business; we were able to attract new clients who were specifically looking for a privacy-first partner. Our existing clients also appreciated the added emphasis on security and privacy, which helped to strengthen our relationships with them.

Apart from legal matters, has the team worked on other company initiatives?

Our teams have worked on several company initiatives beyond legal matters, including promoting ethics, privacy as a human right, and compliance with data protection regulatory frameworks. As a team, we firmly believe that ethics and privacy are essential in all aspects of our work, when providing analytics services.

We understand the importance of data protection and privacy in the analytics industry, and work closely with our clients to ensure their data is protected and all regulatory requirements are met. We advise our clients on best practices for data protection and compliance and help them navigate complex privacy and security-related issues.

Furthermore, we prioritise ethics in all aspects of our work, ensuring that our clients receive honest and transparent advice and guidance. The highest ethical standards are maintained in our interactions with clients and within our team, adhering to strict guidelines around confidentiality, data protection, and conflict of interest.

By prioritising these values, we are able to build strong relationships with our partners and maintain our professional reputation within the analytics industry.

Can you sum up the team culture/ethos in one sentence? 

The team culture or ethos is focused on promoting ethics, privacy as a fundamental human right, and compliance with data protection regulatory frameworks, while prioritising the needs and interests of clients’ users, employees, and ecosystem partners.
