Data Privacy Audit

A meaningful data privacy audit follows the data, not just the policy. Our team maps what personal data a business collects, from whom, for what purpose, where it is stored, who it is shared with, how long it is kept, and how it is secured. We then test that reality against the core obligations of the modern data protection framework: a lawful basis for processing, clear notice and valid consent, purpose limitation, the rights of the individuals whose data is held, obligations around children’s data, security safeguards, and breach-response duties. The gap between practice and obligation is where the exposure sits, and the audit makes it visible.

Law Mahaguru’s approach is grounded in the operational reality that data flows through systems, vendors, and people, not just through a privacy policy. We examine the notices and consent mechanisms a business actually uses, the contracts with the processors and vendors who handle data on its behalf, the internal practices around access and retention, and the readiness to respond when an individual exercises a right or a breach occurs. A polished privacy policy on a website means little if the underlying practices and vendor contracts do not match it, and we focus on that alignment.

The value is readiness and defensibility. A business that has audited its data handling can close the gaps deliberately, build the notices, consents, and contracts the law expects, and respond credibly when a regulator, a customer, or a counterparty asks how its data is governed. We help businesses move from assuming they are compliant to knowing where they stand and what remains to be done.

We conduct data privacy audits for businesses that handle significant customer or employee data, technology and platform companies, and organisations preparing for the obligations of the data protection regime. Each receives a clear assessment of their data handling and a prioritised plan to close the gaps.

Data protection is now a frontline legal risk, not a back-office formality. Law Mahaguru gives you the audit that turns uncertainty into readiness. Tell us how your business uses personal data, and we will show you exactly where you stand.
