Example Engagement

Client Type:
E-commerce platform operating across multiple markets
Objective:
Enhance privacy practices to comply with GDPR and protect customer data

An e-commerce platform operating across multiple jurisdictions engaged CATO to strengthen its privacy practices and ensure compliance with GDPR requirements. The organisation faced increasing regulatory pressure and required clearer oversight of data protection risks.

CATO supported the engagement through a comprehensive privacy risk assessment, identifying gaps in data handling, consent management, and governance processes. A GDPR-aligned privacy program was developed, including updated data protection policies, enhanced customer consent mechanisms, and regular privacy audits.

The implementation resulted in improved regulatory compliance, reduced legal risk, and increased customer trust, positioning the organisation as a responsible and privacy-conscious provider within its market.
