  • Examine data processing agreements to ensure they meet regulatory standards and corporate policies.
  • Manage data subject rights requests and incident response workflows, covering DSAR triage, breach handling, remediation monitoring, and reporting, while maintaining procedural rigor and prompt communication with stakeholders.
  • Promote a strong privacy culture via customized training, awareness initiatives, and stakeholder collaboration, ensuring teams grasp evolving obligations and integrate privacy-by-design principles into everyday operations.
