Data Protection and Compliance

At Cogworks, we take data protection and compliance seriously. In today’s digital landscape, it’s essential that your website not only provides an excellent user experience but also adheres to stringent data protection standards. We are committed to ensuring that every site we build is fully compliant with the latest regulations, including GDPR, and that your users’ data is protected at all times.

We follow all necessary data protection standards, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to ensure that your website and user interactions remain compliant. This means that any personal data collected, stored, or processed on your site is handled with the highest level of care and in accordance with legal requirements. Our adherence to these standards helps protect your business from the risks of non-compliance, such as fines or reputational damage.

Security is a key component of compliance. At Cogworks, we incorporate Cyber Essentials Plus certification and OWASP testing into our processes to ensure that your site is secure from the ground up. These measures help to safeguard your data against cyber threats, ensuring that your site’s security posture is robust and reliable. This comprehensive approach to security not only protects your data but also reinforces your compliance with data protection regulations.

Compliance isn’t just a backend concern; it’s integral to the content creation process as well. That’s why Orama Studio comes with Umbraco Workflow built in (free version), with the option for companies to upgrade if needed. This powerful tool is designed to help your content editors manage content and workflows effectively, ensuring that all published information is brand-compliant and adheres to your organisation’s data protection policies.

• Approval Processes: Ensure that content goes through the necessary approval stages before it’s published, helping to maintain consistency and compliance with your brand’s standards.
• Task Management: Assign tasks to team members and track their progress, ensuring that all content is reviewed and approved in a timely manner.
• Audit Trails: Keep a detailed record of all content changes, approvals, and publishing actions, providing transparency and accountability within your content management processes.
• Customisable Workflows: Tailor the workflow to match your organisation’s specific compliance needs, ensuring that all content is reviewed according to your standards before going live.

By integrating these features into Orama Studio, we make it easy for your team to create and manage content that meets both your brand guidelines and legal requirements.

In a world where data breaches and non-compliance can have serious consequences, it’s more important than ever to ensure that your digital presence is secure and compliant. At Cogworks, we not only build secure websites but also empower your team to manage them with confidence. By embedding compliance into every aspect of your site—from security protocols to content workflows—we help protect your brand and your users.
