Why Choose ComplianceRT as Your External DPO?

Managing privacy today requires more than understanding regulations. Organisations need practical guidance that supports business operations, customer trust and long-term compliance.

Based in Switzerland, ComplianceRT provides outsourced Data Protection Officer (DPO) services for organisations operating across Switzerland, the European Union and the United Kingdom. We combine Swiss privacy expertise with international compliance experience to help organisations navigate evolving privacy obligations while strengthening governance and reducing operational risk.

Our team works alongside a trusted ecosystem of Swiss legal, cybersecurity and technology partners, enabling organisations to access multidisciplinary expertise through a single compliance partner. Combined with our Swiss-hosted compliance platform, 360vue, we deliver practical, business-focused privacy support that scales with your organisation.

When Does Your Organisation Need a Data Protection Officer?

Many organisations appoint an external Data Protection Officer to strengthen governance, demonstrate accountability and build trust with customers, partners and regulators.

  • You process personal or sensitive data and need to strengthen privacy governance.
  • You operate across Switzerland, the EU or the UK, or are expanding into new international markets.
  • You need ongoing privacy leadership to support regulatory compliance, AI governance, DPIAs, DSARs and evolving data protection obligations.
