Scope of GDPR services in the construction industry
Data security in construction and real estate – business case

The construction and real estate sectors process a wide range of personal data – from employees directly involved in construction work and project managers to individual clients, tenants and members of residents' associations. Under the GDPR, a key challenge is inconsistent management of this data at the interface of many parties: investors, developers, contractors and property administrators. In large organisations there is often insufficient oversight of processor agreements, and data flows between systems without proper rules. The result is organisational gaps that expose companies to serious legal and reputational risks.
ODO 24 has worked with construction and real estate companies on projects involving comprehensive GDPR compliance. Together with investment and management teams we implemented data retention policies, standardised template privacy notices, updated records of processing activities and delivered training tailored to different organisational levels. Clients gained control over data flows in construction investments, structured relationships with technical partners and minimised breach risks in day-to-day property management.

GDPR and cybersecurity – challenges in the construction industry
The construction and property management sector is increasingly adopting digital solutions – building management systems (BMS), tenant service platforms, CCTV and electronic access control. These process personal data in real time and at scale, so they must meet GDPR requirements and be resilient to modern cyber threats.
Inadequate technical and organisational security exposes companies to serious risks – from unauthorised access to data loss and infrastructure paralysis. Combining GDPR compliance with robust cybersecurity is a prerequisite for safe, modern investment management and protecting facility users' data.

What our customers say about our services
Marcin Wieczorek

„I am very impressed with the high level of substantive expertise of the training staff"
From 13 to 17 March I attended the "Course for Information Security Administrators" organized by ODO 24 sp. z o.o. I am very impressed with the high substantive level of the training staff and the comprehensive program. Working as an ABI requires knowledge not only of legal provisions but also of IT matters, which ODO 24 took into account. Noteworthy is the curriculum, which gradually introduces increasingly advanced nuances of personal data protection, starting from the legal basics and ending with practical aspects of auditing and working with documents within a company. The complete set of materials, editable documents and publications I received will facilitate my daily work as an ABI. I can certainly recommend ODO 24 as a reliable partner offering training services of a high standard.

„We can wholeheartedly recommend ODO 24 as a professional and reliable partner"
For many years we have consistently placed great importance on the protection of the personal data of our customers as well as our employees. We took an active part in creating the "Code of Good Practice for the Protection of Personal Data of Customers and Potential Customers,” developed jointly by GIODO and the Polish Automotive Industry Association. Due to the complexity and variability of the rules on personal data protection, as well as Mazda’s dynamic development in Poland and the increasing volume of data we process, we decided to entrust the ABI function to a company specialized in this field. The decision to use the services of ODO 24 was primarily influenced by the experience and competence of the team of experts, the comprehensiveness of the offering and its flexibility in adapting to our organization. After a year of cooperation we can recommend ODO 24 as a professional and reliable partner.

„A practical approach, continuous advisory availability, and positive working relationships"
We have been working with ODO24 for over a year. For us it has been a year of peaceful breathing and a sense of security: at least regarding personal data protection :-) The people at ODO are professionals who explain matters that are incomprehensible to the average person in an understandable way. They understand not only their profession but, which is very important to us, business and its requirements. A practical approach, constant advisory availability, and great relationships — all of this means I can recommend this Company to anyone who wants to work and sleep peacefully.

„I recommend the company ODO 24 as a professional partner"
For several years we have been cooperating with ODO 24 in the field of personal data protection. A professional team that efficiently helped us to comply with the requirements of the GDPR. We make use not only of the experts’ knowledge but also of professionally prepared e‑training, thanks to which we were able to train several hundred employees in a very short time. I highly recommend ODO 24 as a professional partner delivering services at the highest level.

GDPR in construction – questions and answers
The cost depends on the scale of the investment, the organisational structure and the number of entities involved in data processing. We offer flexible packages for developers, property managers and general contractors – including an audit, implementation and post-implementation support. Contact us to receive a quote tailored to the specifics of your business.
The most common issues are lack of control over access to data on construction sites, disorganised data processing agreements and improper processing of residents' data. Relationships with subcontractors and lack of transparency in communication with clients can also be problematic.
Not always – but very often it is advisable given the scope of data and the risks of processing. We can analyse your situation and propose outsourcing of the Data Protection Officer (DPO) function or another secure solution.
Data of owners, tenants, members of housing communities, as well as data of employees and contractors (e.g. CCTV, access logs, personnel records). High risk also concerns data collected by intelligent building management systems.
Yes – any company that processes data on your behalf must act in accordance with the GDPR and have an appropriate data processing agreement. The lack of such documentation is a common mistake in this sector.
No – we plan our activities so that they do not conflict with the construction or sales schedule. We work modularly, often remotely, and adjust the pace to the project phase.
Yes – we have worked with developers, municipal companies and firms managing buildings. We understand the industry's structure and know how to implement GDPR compliance effectively in a multi-stakeholder environment.
Yes! We offer a free consultation for companies in the construction and real estate sector, during which we analyse your needs and propose optimal solutions. Schedule a meeting with our expert.
