About Us

Meet Data Driven Legal

We are specialists in data protection and privacy. We leverage this experience to support companies with AI governance and assurance.

Our years of experience inhouse mean that we know how to give clear advice and practical solutions. We get to the heart of the issue and provide straightforward advice.

When you instruct us on your data protection work, you can get on with the day job, knowing that the compliance piece is in safe hands.

More than anything, we enjoy our work. We like to think this takes the pain out of privacy compliance for our clients.
