Industries · Sector practice

Privacy law is universal. Operational reality is not.

We bring sector-specific playbooks for industries where personal data sits at the heart of the business model — and where a generic privacy approach demonstrably fails.

01

Healthcare

Patient data is the most regulated category of personal data in every jurisdiction we work in. Hospitals, telehealth platforms and pharmaceutical operations need privacy programs engineered for clinical reality — not adapted from a B2B SaaS template.

Patient consent & clinical workflow

Consent architecture that survives clinical-shift handovers, telehealth across borders, and integration with HIS/EMR systems.

Cross-border medical records

TIA frameworks for medical tourism flows, second-opinion services and cross-border specialist consults under PDPL and DPDPA constraints.

Research & clinical trial privacy

DPIAs for research databases, anonymisation/pseudonymisation review, and ethics-board-grade privacy documentation.

Genetic & biometric data

Special-category processing controls — including consent uplift, retention boundaries and onward-transfer governance.

02

Publication & Media

Subscriber data, ad-tech, contributor agreements and editorial source protection — across digital, print and audio platforms. Privacy here meets press freedom, and the lines have to be drawn deliberately.

Subscriber consent & ad-tech governance

Consent strings, IAB TCF compliance, and the cookie-and-tracking architecture for digital publishing operations across multiple jurisdictions.

Editorial source protection

Privacy controls that protect journalistic sources — including contributor data, anonymous tip channels and editorial-CRM segregation.

Reader analytics & profiling

DPIAs for behavioural profiling, paywall analytics and recommendation engines — including the lawful-basis analysis for each.

Public-interest exemptions

Practical guidance on the journalism, research and public-interest exemptions across DPDPA, GDPR and GCC frameworks.

03

Education & E-Learning

Minor data sits at the centre of every K-12, EdTech and higher-education privacy program. The standard is higher, the stakes are personal, and the regulatory expectations — particularly the UAE Child Digital Safety regime and DPDPA's parental consent requirements — are uncompromising.

Parental consent & verifiable age-gating

Engineered parental-consent architecture under DPDPA Section 9, UAE Child Digital Safety, and COPPA-class principles.

Learning analytics & profiling

DPIAs for learning analytics platforms — including AI-driven adaptive learning and the lawful-basis review every regulator now expects.

Student record retention & transcript transfer

Long-tail retention frameworks, secure transcript transfer and the cross-border safeguards for international student mobility.

EdTech vendor privacy review

Third-party assessment of every EdTech tool touching minor data — including conditional approval frameworks for procurement.

04

Hospitality

Reservation systems, loyalty programs, biometric access and guest analytics — across multi-property, multi-jurisdiction operations. Privacy here is operational, real-time, and inseparable from guest experience.

Loyalty program privacy architecture

Group-wide loyalty data flows, profiling controls, and the cross-property consent architecture that lets a single guest-record travel lawfully.

Biometric guest access

DPIAs for facial recognition, biometric room access and contactless check-in — with the consent-and-alternative pathways every regulator requires.

CCTV & behavioural analytics

Property-level surveillance governance, signage compliance, and retention controls for footage and derived analytics.

Cross-border booking & payment

Transfer mechanisms for OTA integrations, cross-border payments and the data-sharing flows inherent to multi-property operations.

05

Commercial

B2B SaaS, e-commerce and retail enterprises — consent infrastructure, marketing data flows, vendor contracts and the cross-border transfer mechanics that scale with growth.

Marketing & CRM consent

Consent strings, lawful-basis records and the marketing-platform architecture that withstands a regulator inspection.

SaaS privacy posture

Sub-processor governance, customer DPA architecture, and the data-residency commitments your enterprise customers will increasingly demand.

E-commerce data flows

Customer-data architecture across storefront, payment, fulfilment and analytics — with the lawful basis mapped for each downstream use.

Cross-border transfer engineering

SCC architecture, TIA libraries and the ongoing transfer-monitoring program that keeps cross-border flows defensible as regulations shift.

06

Transportation & Mobility

Telematics, ride-sharing, fleet data and biometric driver monitoring — including the cross-border transfer mechanisms for regional fleet and logistics operations.

Telematics & driver monitoring

DPIAs for telematics platforms, driver-behaviour analytics and the consent architecture for fleet operations across jurisdictions.

Ride-share & rider data

Two-sided-marketplace privacy architecture — driver data, rider data, location histories, and the lawful-basis split between them.

Logistics & supply-chain personal data

Privacy controls for last-mile delivery, recipient data, and the third-party logistics flows that often slip through standard privacy programs.

Cross-border fleet data

Transfer mechanisms for regional fleet operations across KSA, the GCC and India — including the regulatory-clock for cross-border vehicle data.
