DATA PROTECTION EXCEL DESCRIPTION

GDPR Data Privacy Implementation Playbook is an Excel template (XLSX) with a supplemental Zip archive file document available for immediate download upon purchase.

GDPR Data Privacy Implementation Playbook

GDPR fines reached 2.1 billion EUR in 2023 alone. If your data processing activities are not properly documented, your DPIA process is ad hoc, and your breach response plan lives in someone's head, you are exposed.

The average GDPR fine is 1.5 million EUR. The reputational damage is worse. And every day without a structured privacy programme increases your attack surface.

Go from reactive firefighting to a documented, defensible privacy programme with every processing activity mapped, every risk assessed, and every procedure ready for regulator scrutiny.

Privacy consultants charge $200 to $500 per hour. A full GDPR programme build runs $50,000 to $150,000. This playbook gives you the same structured methodology, tools, and frameworks for a fraction of the cost.
