About the EU GDPR:
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in force since 2018, is widely viewed as a global benchmark for data protection. Its extra-territorial reach means it also applies to organisations outside Europe that target the EU market or monitor EU data subjects. In addition to general GDPR obligations, such organisations must appoint an EU Representative to act on their behalf as the point of contact for supervisory authorities and data subjects.
A core aim of the GDPR is to give people greater control over their personal data. Individuals have rights to access, rectification, erasure (“right to be forgotten”), restriction, data portability, and objection. Organisations must be transparent about processing and respond to rights requests without undue delay, typically within one month.
As your first-line contact for customers and regulators, we handle data requests seamlessly through whatever channel they prefer.
As your appointed representative, we act as your frontline for GDPR issues, representing you to all EU stakeholders and liaising with supervisory authorities, data subjects, and business customers.
We serve as your trusted liaison to EU data protection authorities, maintaining secure communication channels and strong working relationships. Our expert team handles critical matters, from investigations to data-breach notifications.
Agora acts as your designated point of contact for data subjects: receiving, verifying, and triaging requests, routing them to your team, and ensuring timely, compliant handling from intake through resolution. We track statutory deadlines and escalate early to keep every request on track.
GDPR readiness is a strategic asset, not just a legal checkbox. When you can show privacy-by-design, documented controls, and responsive processes, stakeholders see a company that takes data seriously. That perception translates into stronger brand reputation and greater customer loyalty.

🌐 We get you compliant in less than 24 hours in the EU, the UK and Switzerland.
To get started, simply sign up and sign the Letter of Appointment (LoA). This mandates us as your representative (EU/UK/CH) so we can lawfully act as the contact point for authorities and individuals. We will then send you the representative details to add to your website’s privacy policy, including our name and the local postal address (EU/UK/CH as applicable). From there, we provide ongoing compliance cover—serving as your first line for supervisory authorities and data subjects.

We operate in the European Union, United Kingdom and Switzerland.
Target the UK market safeguarded by Agora’s UK GDPR Representative services. Following Brexit, the UK adopted the same Article 27 requirement as the EU, making it an obligation for non-UK businesses to appoint a representative.
Processing personal data in Switzerland without a local entity? The revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) was updated in 2023 to align with the EU’s GDPR, making it mandatory to appoint a representative. Strengthen compliance, increase transparency, and build trust by appointing Agora as your Swiss representative.
Failing to appoint a GDPR or FADP representative when required is not a minor oversight — it is a direct breach of the law. Regulators in the EU, UK, and Switzerland are directed to impose substantial fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, launch formal investigations, and even restrict your ability to do business in these markets.
Non-compliance also exposes your company to costly disputes with data subjects and the reputational damage that comes with being seen as untrustworthy on privacy.
Appointing a representative is a legal obligation under Article 27 of the EU and UK GDPR, as well as the Swiss FADP. Authorities are increasingly cracking down on foreign companies that process local data without meeting this requirement. By ignoring it, you risk not only severe financial penalties but also loss of customer confidence and barriers to market access.
With Agora as your representative, you can protect your business from these risks, demonstrate accountability, and operate with peace of mind across Europe.
From handling data-subject requests to managing authority inquiries, we take on the front line so your team can focus on growth. We deliver insightful advice, measurable response times and get rid of compliance headaches for our clients.
“Selling online across the EU, UK, and Switzerland from abroad, I needed local data protection representation everywhere. Your team had all three reps live within days and gave me clear, practical advice tailored to a DTC food brand—what actually applies, how to handle DSARs, cookie language, and what buyers look for in due-diligence. The best part was the plug-and-play privacy-policy text with the EU/UK/CH representative details—we pasted it in and were done in minutes. Now any data-subject or regulator message routes to you with time-stamped responses, and we’ve sped through retailer onboarding.”
