Tom Smit | Head of Product Development and Sales

As a property manager, we want to handle personal data with extreme care. Especially those of our residents. Joost makes this possible. He helps us with GDPR contracts and gives privacy advice. He does this well; a client complimented us on the quality of his processing agreement!

Matthias van Klaveren | Operational manager

I got to know Joost as a very knowledgeable lawyer in the field of GDPR and privacy during my work at the PO-Raad. In my current position as sector director of Education, Quality and Innovation at SCOH, we also regularly encounter, for us, complex GDPR and privacy issues here. I can trust Joost to answer our questions, which often have to be answered under time pressure, quickly and with knowledge and expertise. The exploration of the issue is thorough and the answer is always in understandable language and from a practical point of view how to act as an organisation. This practical and hands-on approach really helps us move forward in doing our job well.
