Anonymized reference caseDental practice & medical care center · Frankfurt, 18 employees+
Starting point
No GDPR documentation, patient data in unencrypted emails, no data protection officer despite the legal requirement.
Solution & result
Complete GDPR audit: RoPA created, DPAs with all service providers, DPO appointment, employee training, data breach reporting process.
GDPR compliance achieved in 3 weeks, data protection authority audit passed, cyber insurance secured, no fines.
GDPR violations happen every day — without companies realizing it
- Patient data sent by unencrypted email, customer files without access control — both GDPR violations that carry the risk of fines
- Many companies need a data protection officer and do not know it — Art. 37 GDPR applies from 20 employees with data access
- Data breaches must be reported to the authorities within 72 hours — without a process, you miss the deadline and double the fine
Complete GDPR compliance from a single provider — demonstrable and audit-proof
- Gap analysis identifies every violation with a risk rating — you know what is critical and what can wait
- All GDPR documents created: RoPA, DPAs, DPIA, privacy policies, consent forms
- External DPO takes on all mandatory duties under Art. 37 — more affordable than an in-house DPO, legally equivalent

Data Processing Agreements (DPA)
Legally sound DPAs with every service provider that processes personal data on your behalf.

How we work
Inventory
Analysis of all data processing, existing data protection measures and the service providers you use.
Gap Analysis
Identification of all GDPR violations and risk areas, rated by severity.
Action Plan
Prioritized roadmap to close every gap, with timeline and clear responsibilities.

The data protection authority showed up three months after our audit. We passed every check — thanks to the complete documentation Clouderio had prepared. Without it, things would have turned out very differently.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about GDPR Audit & Data Protection at a glance.
01Do I need a data protection officer?+
If more than 20 people in your company regularly work with personal data, a DPO is mandatory (Art. 37 GDPR). Certain types of data (health data, biometric data) also trigger the requirement regardless of headcount. We review your specific situation in a free initial consultation.
02How much does a GDPR audit cost?+
A complete GDPR audit for SMEs starts at a fixed price of €3,500 — including RoPA, gap analysis and action plan. External DPO from €150/month. Combined compliance package (audit + DPO + ongoing support) from €400/month.
03What are records of processing activities (RoPA)?+
The RoPA documents all processing activities involving personal data in your company — mandatory under Art. 30 GDPR. It covers purpose, legal basis, data categories, recipients, retention periods and safeguards. Supervisory authorities routinely request it.
04How long does a GDPR audit take?+
The review phase takes 5–10 business days. With the action plan and implementation of critical items, you are compliant within 3–4 weeks. We always prioritize by risk — high-risk violations are fixed first.
05What happens in the event of a data breach?+
Art. 33 GDPR: notification to the supervisory authority within 72 hours. Art. 34: affected individuals may also need to be informed. We set up your data breach reporting process and stand by you immediately when it happens — including communication with the authorities.
06Does the GDPR apply to small businesses too?+
Yes, the GDPR applies to every company that processes data of EU citizens — regardless of size or revenue. Fine ranges are, however, scaled by company size. For SMEs, the simple violations are especially dangerous: missing DPAs, no RoPA, unencrypted communication.
