To meet the expectations of entrepreneurs, RGW has prepared an offer of legal assistance in the field of personal data protection law with particular emphasis on the implementation of the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, in Poland commonly referred to as RODO), which must be observed in all Member States of the European Union from 25 May 2018.

Legal advice includes, inter alia, auditing the current policy of protection of personal data used in the company, preparing a report on the identified gaps and inconsistencies and presenting proposals for solutions adapting to the new legal status.
