💡Quick Answer

8 hours/month GDPR engineering retainer: monthly compliance dashboard review, incident response escalation support, one proactive recommendation per month, and up to 2 hours emergency response. For SMEs with baseline GDPR controls in place. 6-month minimum contract. €1,400/month.

📋Why this service exists

Article 32(1)(d) requires regular review and evaluation of security measures. Article 33 requires you to have someone capable of responding to breach alerts within 72 hours. For organizations without a full-time GDPR engineer, a managed retainer provides the ongoing operational support that the Regulation requires.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between Lite and Pro?
Lite = 8h/month, monthly reviews, no on-call. Pro = 24h/month, weekly reviews, business-hours on-call. Enterprise = 60-100h/month, dedicated engineer, 24/7 incident response.
Can unused hours roll over?
Up to 4 hours roll over to the next month. Accumulated rollover is capped at 8 hours (one month). This prevents large hour accumulations that don't reflect ongoing engagement.
