Juniper Case Study, Data Protection Support

Juniper is a growing organisation managing multiple acquisitions. With the CFO informally covering the DPO role and no dedicated resource, policies and processes needed a refresh. DPP supported a newly appointed CRM Manager and DPO with templates, training, and quick expert advice, building confidence and saving time. “It is just easy, I know you will have an answer.”

“It is rare that you find someone who has been brought in as a DPO, it is normally somebody who has just ended up having that responsibility.”

CRM Manager and DPO, Juniper 

The Challenge

Responsibility for data protection sat with the CFO alongside other duties, which meant limited capacity and expertise. Policies were outdated, SAR and breach handling were unclear, and the risk of non compliance was increasing. When a new CRM Manager stepped into a dual role as DPO, they needed reassurance, resources, and a trusted second opinion to manage data protection effectively.

Our Solution

  • Targeted training materials and practical guidance tailored to Juniper
  • Advice on international compliance issues, including China data protection requirements
  • Fast access to DPP experts, for example Kathy and Ollie, for knowledgeable responses
