ROBIN DATA RECEIVES GROWTH FINANCING AND FURTHER DEVELOPS DATA PROTECTION SOFTWARE

Robin Data enables companies to create their data protection documentation with just a few clicks. Via a browser application, users can access numerous sector-specific data protection contents such as processing activities, technical and organisational measures and data types and categories. This is unique up to now, as the data protection content, in particular, has been incorporated by experienced data protection officers and lawyers. As a result, the operational data protection documentation is not only legally compliant, but also implemented within a very short time. The development of the data protection software took place in an unusually short period of only one year, even though 100 % of the development took place in Germany. In addition, the user data is stored in an ISO/IEC 27001 certified data centre located in Germany. It was only in June 2020 that Robin Data came under the Top 100 fastest growing startups in Germany elected.

We want the best product in the growing market for digital data protection. For me, the data protection documentation of the future is clearly digital, automated and time efficient. This investment will enable us to further develop our data protection software and further expand our market share.

Prof. Dr. Andre Döring, CEO & Co-Founder of Robin Data GmbH
