Testimonial

A word from our client

“Aphaia’s outsourced DPO model let us tap into deep expertise and added a pace and reliability we’ve come to count on. They mapped out and managed the entire GDPR compliance timeline for us, keeping us organised and on track. The whole experience was super-smooth and working with legal experts who speak in plain English was a breath of fresh air. Now, we’re in a strong, secure position safe in the knowledge we can turn to our Aphaia DPO when we need them.”
