audit Send us your website and a short note on what you process. A GTC attorney audits it against the GDPR and replies with a written summary, usually within two business days, plus a flat-fee or retainer quote scoped to your risk. 2 ### Build the programme We work in the order that matters: Article 30 Records of Processing, lawful-basis mapping, DPIAs for high-risk activities, DPAs and 2021 SCCs with vendors, a Transfer Impact Assessment, and a working DSAR workflow with templates and an SLA tracker. 3 ### Keep it current An optional retainer covers vendor DPA reviews, new processing activities, an annual refresh, and an EU representative service under Article 27 where it applies. The programme stays current as your product and the guidance change. What it costs ## Pricing GDPR Compliance starts from $1,500. GTC's fee is quoted by scope after a free written gap audit. Flat fee for a one-off build or a retainer if you want the programme kept current. The audit itself is free and you get a written summary before you commit to anything. Any government or filing fees that apply are passed through at cost. What's included - Free written GDPR gap audit of your live site - Article 30 Records of Processing Activities and lawful-basis mapping - Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for high-risk processing - Data Processing Agreements with vendors (controller-processor and joint controller) - 2021 Standard Contractual Clauses and a Transfer Impact Assessment for international transfers - Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) workflow, templates, and SLA tracker - 72-hour breach-notification playbook and cookie-consent banner configuration - EU representative service under Article 27 where it applies Free written GDPR gap audit Free GDPR programme build (RoPA, DPIAs, DPAs, SCCs, DSAR) Quoted by scope Ongoing maintenance retainer Quoted by scope EU representative service (Article 27) Quoted by scope Government / filing fees, where any apply At cost Compliance is ongoing. We build the programme and keep it current; we do not guarantee a regulator's outcome. Get started ### Get your free GDPR gap audit Tell us about your data processing and a GTC attorney will scope your GDPR programme and email a flat-fee or retainer quote. No payment required Reply within 1 business day A GTC attorney reviews it & sends a flat-fee quote. 1. 01 Brand details 2. 02 Documents 3. 03 Your details Send your website URL and a short note on the EU users and vendors involved. That's enough for us to start the written audit. Brand details 1 Project / Company Name\* Legal name of the entity needing GDPR work. 2 How does your business connect to the EU?\* This is your EU nexus — the link that decides whether GDPR applies to you and which parts. Pick the closest description. 3 Your Role\* A controller decides why and how personal data is used; a processor only handles it on someone else's instructions. Your role sets which GDPR duties you have. 4 Focus Areas\* Pick all that apply. 'Full audit' = comprehensive review including all of the below. 5 Approximate Data Volume Roughly how many people's data do you hold? A ballpark is fine — it helps us scope the work. BackNext Why GTC ## Why companies bring GDPR to GTC Legal team GTC's privacy team Data-protection counsel Attorney-led ### Records that survive a review Article 30 RoPA, lawful-basis mapping, and DPIAs documented the way an EU regulator expects to read them, not a single policy paragraph. ### Transfers handled post-Schrems II 2021 SCCs drafted to current EDPB guidance, Transfer Impact Assessments, and documented supplementary measures for data leaving the EU. ### DSARs that work in production An intake form, an internal process, response templates, an exemption checklist, and an SLA tracker, so request #1 and request #500 are handled the same way, within the one-month deadline. ### Attorney-led, not a scan A GTC attorney scopes and builds the programme, including the EU representative service under Article 27 where a non-EU company needs one. Your Customer Success Team ## A dedicated team that owns your matter from start to finish. Every GTC client gets a dedicated Account Manager and a Senior Account Manager who learn your business and stay with you from first email to final filing. They are named people who pick up the phone and already know your matter, so every step moves forward without delay. ### Your Account Manager Your day-to-day point of contact, who coordinates every matter, keeps things moving, and already knows your file. They have your full history, so you start every conversation where the last one left off. ### Your Senior Account Manager Senior oversight on strategy and escalations, stepping in as your needs grow, so every important detail stays on track. A named person, on email or a call, at every step. ![Your dedicated GTC Customer Success Team](/assets/m-onboarding-bright-welcome-C-heDolY.jpg) How we compare ## GTC vs the alternatives What you get GTC Online filing services Doing it yourself Free written attorney audit of your live site Auto-scan only Auto-scan only Article 30 RoPA + lawful-basis mapping Generic checklist Generic checklist DPAs + 2021 SCCs to current EDPB guidance Outdated templates Outdated templates Transfer Impact Assessment (post-Schrems II) Working DSAR workflow implemented, not just a policy EU representative service under Article 27 Available Free written attorney audit of your live site GTC Online filing services Auto-scan only Doing it yourself Auto-scan only Article 30 RoPA + lawful-basis mapping GTC Online filing services Generic checklist Doing it yourself Generic checklist DPAs + 2021 SCCs to current EDPB guidance GTC Online filing services Outdated templates Doing it yourself Outdated templates Transfer Impact Assessment (post-Schrems II) GTC Online filing services Doing it yourself Working DSAR workflow implemented, not just a policy GTC Online filing services Doing it yourself EU representative service under Article 27 GTC Available Online filing services Doing it yourself The timeline ## A typical GDPR engagement Most B2B SaaS companies reach production readiness in two to four weeks.
