Introducing CtrlTransfer
The transfer of personal data outside the UK or the EU is only permissible if there is “an adequate level of protection” for the data.
Organisations that are subject to the GDPR must conduct a comparative analysis and risk assessment against a complex set of requirements for most of their international data transfers. In our digital world, data transfers are the lifeblood of most companies and therefore they need an effective solution to completing the required risk assessments. However, many large organisations around the globe are still still failing to comply with the regulatory guidance and as a result, substantial fines are still a very common occurrence.
That’s why we created CtrlTransfer – to enable the effective and swift risk assessment of cross-border data transfers.

Testimonial
"CtrlTransfer was a critical component in our strategy for dealing with Schrems judgement. Unlike other vendors who created databanks of opinions that were incomplete, unstructured or simply gave opinions that didn't match with the thinking behind the Schrems judgement, Simmons came through with a tool at a reasonable price the reliably scored the majority of countries of relevance to us. We build their scoring system into our policies, saving us time, effort and additional stress on top of a challenging project. This was probably the most valuable and thoughtfully put together legal tool I've ever used."
