Build a GDPR-aligned data protection programme covering personal data of EU residents. Codesecure runs the full programme: data mapping, lawful basis analysis, DSAR workflows, DPIA, breach notification and ongoing DPO support, with named privacy consultants.
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is the EU regulation that governs processing of personal data of EU residents. It applies extraterritorially: Indian companies that offer goods or services to EU residents, or monitor EU resident behaviour, are in scope as either controllers or processors. UK GDPR mirrors EU GDPR for UK residents after Brexit.
Codesecure delivers GDPR as a managed programme: full personal data discovery and mapping, lawful basis analysis for each processing purpose, Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) workflows, Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) for high-risk processing, breach notification readiness (72-hour clock), processor / controller agreement review, and ongoing Data Protection Officer (DPO) advisory.
GDPR penalties are real and large: up to 4 percent of global annual turnover or EUR 20M, whichever is higher. EU enforcement has intensified, with multi-hundred-million-euro fines issued against tech firms, retailers and outsourcing providers. Indian BPOs and SaaS companies serving EU clients are explicitly in scope and have already been named in enforcement actions.
Beyond fines, GDPR drives contractual obligations. EU buyers require GDPR-compliant Data Processing Agreements (DPAs), Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for cross-border transfers, and demonstrable Article 28 processor controls. Without these, you lose EU deals to competitors who have done the work.
Codesecure's GDPR programme covers data mapping, lawful basis and operational readiness:
GDPR consulting fees vary by data volume, processing complexity and EU footprint. There is no certification body for GDPR; compliance is demonstrated through documented operations and accountability evidence.

// Frameworks & Standards We Cover
30-minute call with our GDPR lead. Discuss your EU exposure, processor / controller status and DPO needs with no sales pressure.
Schedule Free CallYes, if you offer goods or services to EU residents, monitor EU resident behaviour (analytics, marketing), or process EU personal data on behalf of a controller. Indian SaaS, marketing tech, e-commerce, BPO and outsourcing providers serving EU clients are squarely in scope. GDPR applies extraterritorially.
Codesecure consulting fees are typically INR 1.5L-2L for early-stage exposure (small EU customer base, limited processing), INR 2L-3L for SMBs with active EU operations, and INR 3L-4L+ for mid-market firms with high-volume EU data or formal DPO needs. There is no certification body for GDPR, so no certification fees. DPO retainer (outsourced) is quoted separately and typically INR 30K-60K per quarter.
GDPR requires a DPO if your core activities involve large-scale systematic monitoring of data subjects, large-scale processing of special-category data, or if you are a public authority. Many Indian SaaS companies are not strictly required to appoint one, but EU buyers often expect a named DPO contact regardless. Outsourced DPO retainers are a cost-effective way to satisfy this expectation.
Instant response, no delay. We respond within an hour during business hours, send a fixed-fee scoped proposal in 24-48 hours under NDA, and start data mapping the same day or next business day after sign-off.
GDPR governs EU and UK personal data; DPDP Act governs Indian digital personal data. Indian companies serving both EU and Indian customers need both, but the controls overlap significantly (lawful basis, notices, data subject rights, breach response, accountability). We run combined GDPR + DPDP programmes to reuse mapping, notices and operational workflows.
EU-to-India transfers require a Schrems II-compliant mechanism: Standard Contractual Clauses (new 2021 SCCs) plus a Transfer Impact Assessment, plus supplementary measures if the TIA identifies issues. We author the SCC pack, run the TIA and document supplementary measures (encryption, pseudonymisation, contractual restrictions).
Partially. GDPR drives privacy and data-subject-rights controls that map to ISO 27701 (PIMS) and SOC 2 Privacy TSC. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Security TSC are broader information-security frameworks, GDPR overlaps but does not replace them. Many EU-facing SaaS firms run combined ISO 27001 + GDPR or SOC 2 + GDPR programmes.
