First 100 days of a data protection project; planning for success
As a data protection professional, ProvePrivacy Founder Mark Roebuck often gets asked what the most important aspects of data protection are. Whilst there are many things in the regulation that tend to resonate and help shape advice to clients, it is difficult to list which are most important as the answer is reliant on the context.
In this guide we share Mark’s recommendations and insights on what the first 100 days of an engagement should include, outlining what should be planned for, whilst allowing room for change in line with circumstances.
Why use ProvePrivacy to manage personal data and privacy risks?

David Humphreys - Information Governance Manager
ProvePrivacy is a very intuitive and user-friendly tool, which will be really helpful for fundraisers who might have limited data protection experience or be engaging with information governance for the first time. The fact that it was so thorough seemed like it could be really beneficial in terms of ensuring all data protection information about a given product or activity is held in one place.

Just completed the GDPR Foundation Course , which gave me a big uplift in knowledge on the new standard. The course was thorough and delivered very professionally but they key benefit for me was Mark’s ability to bring the material to life by providing and discussing examples. I would definitely recommend this training.
John Pikett
Managing Partner
I’ve just completed GDPR Foundation training and thoroughly recommend it. I went in with a good working knowledge of the Data Protection Act, but not much real knowledge of how if differs to new legislation such as GDPR. By the end of the session I felt I had a really good understanding of the key aspects of GDPR, and what it will mean in practice – invaluable – and what made it even better was that I also passed the exam at the end !
David Grant
Executive Director
Having worked with the principal director Mark, I can say that it is good to see that a courteous, professional and client dedicated experience with the end client goals always in the sights for delivery, being offered within the UK market. Having used their consulting services on a number of fronts and most recently for some training for my business on GDPR I can thoroughly recommend this team.
Casey Thomas
IT Director
I attended the GDPR Foundation Course and prior to attending the course the team took the time to discuss the course content and who it was aimed at. The course itself was run at a good speed in a small manageable group which allowed the group more of the tutor’s time allowing us all and go over anything we were unsure of. The pace of the course was good with open discussion on each of the modules. The theory was brought to life with real examples where you could use it in the workplace.
Shakil S
Operations Manger, KPMG
I attended one of the Foundation courses and would recommend it to anyone wanting to learn more about the organisational impact of GDPR. Mark is a very engaging presenter with an extensive knowledge of the regulation and is able to summarise effectively the practical implications of the regulation on businesses of all sizes.
Matthew Page
Senior Product Owner, Jaguar Land Rover
I wholeheartedly recommend Mark’s services around GDPR consultancy and training. He understands the regulations, how they impact companies and how firms can succeed on the journey to compliance and beyond. Moreover, given his programme management and compliance background, Mark is ideally placed to accompany organisations on that route.
