What DPO Connect changes for you
Every department contributes
A data mapping campaign invites each department; staff fill in a guided form, free of jargon.
Residents served
A resident exercises their rights through a form on the council website; you follow their request through to the end, with an alert before the deadline.
A report ready for councillors
When it is time to report to councillors, your indicators are already prepared. Your social services and facilities each have their own space, with their own access.
In each of these cases, our team can take on all or part of the work: it is an option, not a prerequisite.
Data mapping, department by department
Each department receives its invitation, reminders go out on their own, and you approve or reject each response before it enters the record.

Frequently asked questions
Does a local authority have to appoint a DPO?
Yes. GDPR Article 37 makes appointing a Data Protection Officer mandatory for public authorities and bodies, and therefore for councils, groups of councils and their social services. DPO Connect equips that DPO, whether in-house or shared.
How do you map the processing of every council department?
Through a data mapping campaign: each department receives an invitation and fills in a guided form, free of jargon. The DPO approves or rejects each response, and the local authority’s record takes shape and stays up to date.
Can social services have their own space?
Yes. Social services, departments and facilities each have their own space and access rights, and the DPO keeps the overall picture.
