I wanted to partner with a privacy expert, so I could focus on building my business. Common Sense's software was easy to use, helped us launch faster, and gave us confidence we were doing it right.

CEO of WoPa
Lynzi Ziegenhagen
The Common Sense Privacy platform was simple to use for my early-stage startup. It is also robust enough for us to keep the same provider and continue evolving our privacy policy as the product and company grow, with the ease of a fixed annual subscription.

As a cyber security form focused on K12, we need to demonstrate our commitment to the highest privacy standards. Common Sense provided attorney level expertise but with the savings, convenience and access that comes from this type of software.

Robert Miller
I am actually an attorney by training. I know HIPAA and COPPA inside and out, but I don't have time to keep up with the latest laws. The FTC is really scrutinizing privacy in health tech and I need expert help from a company I trust.

Let's compare

Chief Privacy Officer
$450,000/year
Comes with significant overhead and is not the best investment for growing businesses.
  • Not a viable option for smaller companies who are looking to grow
  • May be underutilized in organizations with simpler privacy needs
  • Requires additional resources for some jurisdictions
  • Limited flexibility compared to on-demand solutions
  • Most companies cannot afford this type of investment
Privacy Lawyer
$1,500/hour
Hiring privacy experts is episodic, and their incentives are not always aligned with your goals.
  • The best experts are in high demand, and their services are costly.
  • Lack of long-term support, your policy falls out of date as your business evolves.
  • They are not proactive when it comes to changing regulations.
  • Lawyers and privacy experts are legalistic, not customer-centric.
  • They are typically contracted for specific, episodic projects, and are not invested long-term.
