Protect Enterprise Value. Reduce Risk. Build Trust.

In a data-driven world, privacy isn’t just about compliance, it’s about control, credibility, and competitive advantage. Move your privacy program beyond policy to execution and scale responsibly in markets where women represent the majority of users and influence.

“We operationalize privacy and governance across products, data ecosystems, and partnerships.”

Consent & Privacy-by-Design Implementation

We partner with product, engineering, and UX teams to implement transparent, user-friendly consent flows and embed privacy-by-design principles into the full product lifecycle. We translate complex requirements — from FTC consent decrees to international privacy laws — into practical design and technical decisions that stand up to regulatory scrutiny.

Build trust directly into your technology.

  • Reduce exposure from consent-related actions (e.g., Flo, Meta, fertility/wellness apps) by hardening consent flows and telemetry (SDKs/pixels/tags). Map data to purposes, block sensitive sharing, add pre-flight QA and kill-switches, and keep audit-ready evidence.

  • Improve user confidence and retention with plain-language notices, layered consent, and a self-serve preference center. Provide real-time “data use receipts” and clear choices to boost opt-in rates and reduce churn.

  • Streamline internal privacy approvals and documentation with standard DPIA/ADPA templates, consent design reviews, and tag governance. Automate checklists, version control, and evidence logs so legal, product, and compliance can move quickly—with proof.

Outcomes

Data Lifecycle & Vendor Governance

Control what happens to your data — and everyone else’s.

We establish operational policies for data retention, deletion, and vendor oversight to strengthen governance across complex partner ecosystems. From SDKs and analytics tools to international data transfers, we ensure your organization can prove control and compliance at every step.

  • Centralize vendor intake, tiering, and reviews so the riskiest relationships get the right scrutiny. Standardize DPAs, security/privacy assessments, monitoring, and offboarding to keep governance simple and consistent.

  • Document how data moves and why: data maps, DPIAs/ADPAs, model notes, and auditable trails. Align practices to FTC guidance, CPRA requirements, and emerging AI accountability norms—so evidence is ready when asked.

  • Build risk-sharing into contracts and track performance with ongoing monitoring and alerts. Use playbooks (incident, kill-switch, remediation) to contain issues quickly and prevent downstream brand, legal, and revenue impact.

Outcomes

De-Identification & Risk Minimization

We help you design and validate de-identification and anonymization strategies that balance compliance with business and analytic needs. Our approach aligns with current guidance from the FTC, NIST, and HIPAA to minimize re-identification risk while enabling valuable insights.

Protect privacy without sacrificing innovation.

  • Use the right data, the right way—so teams can analyze and collaborate without exposing people or violating policies with clear governance, access rules, and approvals so insights flow while privacy and policy requirements are met.

  • Build privacy into products and workflows, and have evidence ready for audits, partners, or due-diligence reviews with templates, checklists, and artifacts (DPIAs, vendor reviews, audit trails) that show how privacy is built in.

  • Apply documented, repeatable de-ID methods so your data is useful—and defensible with regulators and reviewers through standardized de-ID playbooks with testing and documentation to support re-use, renewals, and external scrutiny.
