"Perfect support for a complex and high responsibility job"

Ensuring compliance with data Protection laws within organisations is challenging, complex and sometimes frightening when one considers the breadth of scope it demands. I suppose my favourite aspect of PrivIQ is how it simplifies this complexity by laying out very clearly all the items one has to go through, as a DPO, to go from compliance assessment to compliance sustenance including the facilitation of everyday responsibilities like managing DSARs or performing DPIAs.

Jose R.

"Easy to Use Robust Privacy Management Platform"

PrivIQ is an elegant, easy-to-use and robust solution that is well-suited to support organizations in the complex and ever-evolving US data privacy landscape. We needed a platform that could easily tailor and extend to include compliance requirements from various US States, US Federal Laws and regulations and accommodate information security frameworks as well.

"I use PrivIQ as a privacy advisor to accelerate client success and simplify ongoing compliance"

PrivIQ is an excellent value that is unmatched in the current privacy software marketplace. Overly complex and overpriced tools prevent companies from advancing their compliance programs. PrivIQ is an excellent antidote. It’s very easy to set up and start using right away without a lot of ongoing support. It’s technology that actually makes things easier.

"The DPOs best buddy"

As a DPO, the fact that I get an entire structure to run my compliance and keep it updated with a standardized approach for all of our companies is amazing. The possibility to create all types of users with tailored access to all sections helps me immensely to bring to the compliance process all stakeholders.

Paul G.

"Best Privacy Solution for POPIA and GDPR"

PrivIQ is the only solution that offers a 360 degree of our privacy program. The portal is “self-managing” so it reminds our staff via email notifications to conclude tasks or inform them of new DSAR. Also the standard legal templates available satisfy most of our company requirements without consulting an attorney.

"A Great Data Privacy Compliance tool"

PriviQ is super easy to use and understand. I have been interacting with the tool for about 2 weeks now and so far I am easily able to navigate around all its functionalities with relative ease and I can easily explain its value to others. I also like that you can track the progress of your compliance at any one point. The customer service is also amazing, very responsive to both new and existing customers. It is also easily adaptable in several regions, like my country Kenya.

"Seamless approach for Privacy Professional and DPOs alike in setting the scene"

A comprehensive, user-friendly and practical information privacy compliance platform which allows for a systematic approach to the implementation of associated legislation.

"Embeds PoPIA into the business"

PrivIQ comes with a lot of supporting materials, ranging from the predefined queries to the supporting documentation and the user guides – for breach management, for example. PrivIQ allows me to manage privacy for multiple clients simultaneously. Once it has been set up, and the initial compliance assessment has been done, the workflow ensures that PoPIA is not forgotten by the client

"Best Solution For Our Business"

The program is easy to manage and everything we require is easy to obtain and report on. Intergrating POPIA into our business has simplified the process and and enabled us to keep costs down. Our Compliance Manager manages reports are hassel free.

Lance S.

Assure Data Compliance Manager Pack ‘n Stack (Africa)

"PrivIQ is a stable platform providing clear risk management priorities."

PrivIQ basic prebuilt templates and reports clarify where we need to focus our efforts. PrivIQ assists us in clarifying areas of focus to maintain our Data Privacy tasks and related priorities. PrivIQ also ensures responsible parties retain oversight of functions and the overall status of data privacy projects.

"Best Compliance App"

I like this solution because it contains the Kenya Data Privacy Act which simplifies the compliance process. It solves issues around the business impact of non compliance with the data laws

Kennedy W.

"Simple, versatile, cost effective compliance management software"

The software is extremely simple to use but also very comprehensive. The way the tasks module works allows you to customise it to support other aspects of the business. We needed a solution to manage our ongoing data privacy compliance.

Vincent L.

"Simple take on, great support"

Simple, intuitive, Structured, and provides a single platform. Ongoing management privacy tool.

Test

I’ve been in the privacy space for years and have used my fair share of governance and compliance tools—most of them either overly complex or ridiculously expensive. PrivIQ has been a refreshing change. What stood out right away was how simple the platform is to set up. Onboarding took a fraction of the time I’ve experienced with other solutions, I was up and running quickly without the usual heavy lift or weeks of training. The UI is clean and intuitive, which makes it much easier to get buy-in from colleagues outside of privacy/legal.
