The prestigious Service of the Year awards, organized by the Lithuanian Business Confederation (LVK), honor those who best create added value for business and society. On September 30, 2020, Juridicon won the Legal Service of the Year award for the second year in a row. The service “Data Protection Officer Allaw”, introduced to businesses at the beginning of this year, was recognized by the esteemed committee as the most successful in identifying the need and the most unique and innovative legal service applied on the market. It includes not only the appointment of a data protection officer for companies and organizations that meets the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Thanks to the GDPR compliance portal and its smart elements, by combining Lawtech, LegalTech and RegTech, project management and expert knowledge, the service ensures the smooth work of the data protection officer, is beneficial both for the companies, institutions and organizations themselves, and their employees.

Designed not only to facilitate compliance with GDPR requirements

The innovative service is adapted to business and public sector clients seeking to hire an external data protection officer and reduce their data protection costs and receive a high-quality, cost-effective solution. The service, which at the beginning of the year set the goals of “reducing the workload of employees of companies and organizations in the field of ensuring personal data protection, helping to avoid human errors and ensuring real, rather than formal, compliance with GDPR requirements”, quickly received positive customer feedback. Less than half a year after the launch of the service, the service users, who are among the leaders of the business industry, recognized that Juridicon is “a competent team in the field of personal data protection and applies modern service and collaboration technologies, thanks to which the work is done quickly and clearly.” The GDPR compliance portal, created using design thinking and legal design, simplifies complex personal data protection requirements, according to another client, “allowing you to respond to events immediately, at the same second, without waiting for documents to arrive.” According to the founder of the service, Juridicon, “it is gratifying that companies and institutions appreciate the opportunity for their employees to receive personalized assistance from a data protection officer through a “one-stop shop”, make decisions faster, and facilitate compliance risk management and ensure evidence.”

Data Protection Officer Allaw invites you on a GDPR compliance journey

Long-term cooperation in providing legal services to businesses has shown that most company leaders want more input from their lawyer and oversight of the process in which they are involved. They want a collaborative relationship with both their in-house lawyer and their data protection officer. As Juridicon states, “by creating Allaw services, we change communication with the client into collaboration with him, into a joint journey through processes with separate steps, like a board game with starting and ending points. For example, as soon as they log in to the GDPR compliance portal, the client can see a visual report on their company’s or institution’s compliance with GDPR requirements and, as it were, observe a “map” of how to achieve a better result from a bird’s eye view.” Allaw virtual space allows internal teams of organizations to collaborate with an external data protection officer or members of his group, to easily exchange information, documents and knowledge. UAB “Juridicon”, providing Allaw® services, by winning the “Legal Service of the Year” award for the second year in a row, proves that it has a different vision than traditional legal service providers. The innovative services it creates only further confirm the goal set by this company, which stands out for its knowledge, advanced technology and modern approach to managed legal services – to be a partner, not just a service provider.
