Read the blog →The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) governs how the personal data of people in the EU is handled, and it applies to companies outside the EU that serve EU residents. The penalties are real: up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher. We get your data handling, contracts, and processes into shape so GDPR stops being a deal-blocker.
You end up knowing exactly what personal data you process, on what lawful basis, and with the contracts and procedures to handle DSARs and breaches properly. That turns GDPR from an open-ended liability into a documented program you can point to in sales and vendor reviews.
Yes, it can. GDPR applies if you offer goods or services to people in the EU or monitor their behaviour, regardless of where your company is based. Many North American SaaS companies are in scope simply because they have EU users.
The most serious infringements can draw fines of up to 20 million euros or 4% of a company’s total worldwide annual turnover for the preceding year, whichever is higher. That structure is why GDPR gets board-level attention.
A Data Subject Access Request is a request from an individual to access, correct, or delete the personal data you hold about them. GDPR gives people these rights and sets time limits to respond, so you need a repeatable process to handle them.
Both are privacy laws with overlapping principles like lawful processing, consent, and breach handling, but they are separate regimes with different obligations. If you serve both EU and Canadian users, we align the two so you are not building privacy twice.
The price above covers the work. It also covers where the work lives, which most buyers are quoted separately as an annual platform subscription.
| traztech Workspace | Other GRC platforms | |
|---|---|---|
| Licence cost | $0. Free forever, no card, no paid tier | $7,500 to $50,000 a year, on an annual contract |
| Control library, evidence register, policy templates, risk register, vendor questionnaires, readiness scoring | Included | Included |
| What it costs inside an engagement with us | $0. You need a workspace either way | Unchanged. The subscription sits on top of the fee |
| What it does to your audit quote | $11,000 off a five-figure quote on one engagement, for a documented readiness position | Nothing. The audit firm prices your readiness, not your tooling |
Pricing in the right column is what compliance automation platforms are publicly reported to charge; none of them publish a number, so treat it as a range rather than a quote. The $11,000 came off the audit firm's own number once the readiness position was documented (the engagement). Where a paid platform is the better buy, and the fuller comparison, is on the Workspace page.

We are deliberately not a large firm, and we would rather show you the work than a wall of logos. Here is what is behind the advice.
Five published CVEs. CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1) is a flaw in the Mirai botnet itself, which gave defenders a way to shut down attacker infrastructure. CVE-2026-42626 takes HP ENVY 5000 printers offline from any unauthenticated device on the same network.
The printer is the one that matters on a compliance page: an asset nobody counts as a computer, on a flat network, downed by a device that never had to log in. Auditors ask how controls fail. We have found out first-hand.
At Humera, a venture-backed US security company, Jacob built the compliance programme in-house from nothing: no report, no policies, no documented controls. It ended in a Type II attestation across 76 controls with zero exceptions, on a team of 15.
The platform held 99.9% uptime throughout, which is the part most readiness projects get wrong: controls are easy to design and hard to retrofit onto a system people already depend on.
For a Waterloo data centre operator we ran SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 together rather than one after the other, across a production campus, an AI compute platform and a self-hosted collaboration stack. Scoped so further Ontario and Quebec sites enter as they reach production. Findings delivered and remediated.
For an Ontario medtech company putting an AI clinical assistant in front of practitioners, we ran the gap analysis and built the evidence programme behind their SOC 2.
