Data Protection Roadmap

Technical privacy strategies that future-proof AI startups.  

The Story

You are a lean startup developing edge, wearable, or transportation devices that are AI or voice enabled.  Reputation and trust are vital for the adoption of your products so that consumers accept your internet-enabled or speech-controlled devices in their homes, cars, or on their bodies.  

The Problem:

  • Other teams in your company see privacy as a roadblock, not an enabler.
  • With ever-changing regulations and requirements, prioritization of data protection is hard.
  • How can you communicate to users what you are doing to protect them, without scaring them?
  • When you try to partner with larger companies, they want privacy assurances but it is unclear what they need.
  • The Solution:

    We work with tech startups to strategize a data protection program.  The Data Protection Roadmap will help startups communicate and align with stakeholders on how to build compliance into the tech stack.  

    Our services provide: 

    • A strategy for scalable and lean privacy by design that offers a prioritized way to future-proof your company.
    • Alignment between company stakeholders on what data protection elements provide the most value; saving you the time and headache of the debate.
    • Clear strategies on how to communicate to your users and potential partners on what you are doing well and why they can trust you.
