At PSE, safeguarding data and ensuring GDPR compliance isn’t just a priority—it’s the cornerstone of our operations. Handling millions of records annually, we guarantee our clients’ data is treated with the utmost care and in strict adherence to data protection laws.

We believe it’s important to share why GDPR data security matters and what we’re doing to reassure our clients that their information is in safe hands.

Why Data Security & Compliance Matter:

Legal Compliance with GDPR: Adhering to GDPR and other data protection regulations is non-negotiable. Non-compliance can lead to significant penalties.

  1. Risk Mitigation: Data breaches and unauthorised access are real threats. We implement advanced data security protocols to prevent these risks.
  2. Business Continuity: The loss or theft of critical customer data can disrupt operations, impact campaigns, and harm client relationships. Our robust data security measures ensure resilience.
  3. Ethical Responsibility in Data Handling: Protecting personal data is an ethical obligation. Responsible data handling practices foster long-term partnerships with our clients.

Our GDPR-Compliant Data Security Measures:

  • Secure Data Transfer: All data transfers are encrypted via TLS or SSH, exceeding GDPR requirements and ensuring secure data movement.
  • Encrypted Data Storage: We use AES 256-bit encryption for all stored data, supported by strict password policies, regular penetration testing, and multi-point authentication to maintain the highest level of security.
  • Data Retention Policies: We retain data only as long as necessary for our services, typically no more than 60 days post-campaign, after which it is securely deleted in compliance with GDPR.
  • Restricted Data Access: Data is siloed to minimise access, with staff undergoing regular GDPR data security training. Our systems are regularly audited to ensure compliance and continuous improvement.
  • Data Minimisation: We collect only the essential data—typically just name, address, spend, and timeframes—to meet campaign objectives. Clients are provided with guidelines to ensure minimal data sharing.
  • Third-Party Compliance: Any third-party involvement is transparently communicated and strictly controlled under our Data Processing Agreement, ensuring all partners meet our rigorous GDPR-compliant standards.

At PSE, data security and GDPR compliance are more than just checkboxes—they’re about building trust, upholding ethics, and practising responsible marketing. We are committed to protecting the confidentiality and integrity of every record we manage.
