Data protection you can run yourself, with a DPO available when you need one
Starter lets a small team keep its own registers and prepare its own DP1 and DP2 filings, from $400 a year. A certified DPO is available on the plans that include one.
What a small team has to deal with
Licensing starts at 50 data subjects
Under SI 155 of 2024, Tier 1 covers controllers with 50 to 1,000 data subjects (SI 155 of 2024, section 6(1)(a)).DPO certification has fees of its own
Training and certifying one person costs USD 1,280 in POTRAZ fees for a Zimbabwean citizen, before salary (SI 155 of 2024, Second Schedule, items 4 and 5). Whether you must appoint a Data Protection Officer depends on your tier and the data you hold. See who must appoint one.
Statutory figures as at 14 October 2026.
