UK GDPR & PECR Compliance Gap Audit
Your website is showing its GDPR gaps to anyone who looks. I look — before a complaint does.
Fixed-price UK GDPR & PECR compliance gap audit for UK D2C and ecommerce brands. Evidence-based, delivered in 7 business days, entirely async. No system access needed. No calls.
Since February 2026 the maximum fine for cookie and email-marketing breaches rose from £500,000 to £17.5m or 4% of turnover.
What gets checked
10 things a regulator, a journalist, or a curious customer can already see.
The method
How I audit without touching your systems.
Everything is assessed from the outside: public registers, your live website, DNS records, your vendors' published terms, and a real subscription to your own marketing. That's the point — your compliance gaps are already externally visible.
I don't need logins, API keys, or a developer meeting, which is why this takes 7 days, not 3 months.
Internal evidence a regulator would also check is covered by a self-assessment checklist included in every report.
What you receive
Evidence, priorities, and a re-test.
A 14–18 page report: 10-area red/amber/green scorecard with screenshot evidence for every finding, each mapped to the specific ICO guidance it comes from
A prioritised fix roadmap: Fix now / Plan / Maintain, with effort estimates
An internal-evidence self-assessment checklist covering what regulators check beyond the website
A free re-test of your Fix-now items within 30 days
