OUR MISSION

OUR HISTORY

DELIVERING SOLUTIONS, BUILDING YOUR BENCH

From their years of working in the industry, Impact Privacy co-founders, Cindy and Léon, understand that the biggest privacy challenge for any healthcare business is translating complex requirements into positive actions and sustainable compliance. Balancing business needs, available resources, and risk appetites is vital to a business success. 

Large healthcare enterprises achieve this through large teams managed by compliance professionals. Often, they are supported by advisers and costly technological solutions. However, the costs and practicalities of this approach are burdensome, with the only other option being compromise and uncertainty.

So, Cindy and Léon launched Impact Privacy to provide an alternative for clients. Our services combines enterprise-level capability with flexibility, understanding, and practicality.
