A Privacy Audit: What We Review

A Privacy Audit: What We Review

A privacy audit is a structured health check of how your website or business handles personal data. It identifies gaps, reduces risk and gives you a clear plan for improvement.

This article explains what a Progressive Robot privacy audit typically covers. It is general guidance, not a legal sign-off.

What We Examine

  • The data you collect and your lawful bases.
  • Your privacy policy and form-level notices.
  • Cookies, tracking and your consent mechanism.
  • Third-party tools and data sharing.
  • Security measures and data storage locations.
  • How you handle rights requests and breaches.

How We Report

You receive a plain-English report ranking findings by risk, with practical, prioritised recommendations. We focus on what will make the biggest difference first.
