RD Privacy Watch · Life Sciences
A regulatory watch built for health & pharma.
One curated stream across 60+ data protection authorities — extended with FDA, EMA, MHRA, HHS OCR, EHDS, ENISA, MDCG and other health, AI & cyber regulators that shape life sciences. Read through a life-sciences lens — clinical research, pharmacovigilance, devices and secondary use of health data.

The problem
More rules. Smaller teams.
Life-sciences teams operate under a moving stack of obligations: GDPR, the EU AI Act, EHDS, the Clinical Trials Regulation, NIS2, country-level health-data rules, and the guidance of dozens of authorities worldwide.
Generic privacy newsletters bury what matters in noise. Internal monitoring is expensive and inconsistent. Decisions get made on second-hand summaries instead of the source — until they can't be.
What's inside
Six things, done well.
Six capabilities built on top of the Watch — designed for pharma and biotech teams that need filtered coverage, archives and life-sciences reading in one place.
01
A global, curated feed
We monitor 60+ data protection authorities across the EU, UK, US, LATAM, APAC, MENA and Africa — and, for Life Sciences Pro, extend the feed with FDA, EMA, MHRA, HHS OCR, EHDS, ENISA, MDCG, CISA HPH, Health Canada, WHO and FDA DHCoE. One stream, no noise.
02
Tailored for life sciences
Every item carries a life-sciences reading: clinical research, pharmacovigilance, devices, secondary use of health data. We add cybersecurity and AI sources relevant to pharma & biotech when your programme needs them.
03
Custom sources
Add the authorities, laws and topics that matter to your jurisdictions; remove the ones that don't. The feed bends to your operating reality — not the other way around.
04
Official templates & guidance
Where an official template exists — from the EDPB or national DPAs — we provide it. ROPAs, DPIAs (incl. the new EDPB template), LIAs, TIAs, breach forms, DPAs. Where none exists, we give you the recognised methodology to build one.
05
Laws & regulators directory
One reference of the privacy and AI laws that apply to life-sciences operations and the official authorities that enforce them, by jurisdiction. Up to date, cross-linked, citable.
06
Weekly digest + monthly executive report
A weekly digest of what changed and why it matters. A monthly executive PDF you can forward to leadership without rewriting. Both written for senior people.

FAQ
Common questions.
Which authorities do you actually monitor?
Free covers 60+ data protection authorities across the EU, UK, US, LATAM, APAC, MENA and Africa. Life Sciences Pro adds 12 health, AI and cyber authorities on top.
Who is Life Sciences Pro built for?
In-house privacy, regulatory, legal and compliance teams at pharmaceutical companies, biotechs, CROs, medical-device manufacturers and digital-health platforms — typically small, senior teams who need a single source of truth across jurisdictions.
How is it different from the free weekly digest?
Free covers the 60+ data protection authorities. Pro adds 12 health, AI and cyber authorities, plus country/region filters, life-sciences reading on every item, custom sources, the full archive, the monthly executive report, the template library, the laws directory and up to 5 team seats.
How does billing work?
€3,600 per year, billed once via Stripe. Auto-renews unless cancelled. Invoices are issued to your company and downloadable from the admin panel.
Can we add more than 5 seats?
Yes — talk to us and we'll quote additional seats or an enterprise plan that fits your headcount. Pricing scales sensibly, not by tier shuffling.
Beyond the Watch
When you need more than intelligence.
The Watch is one piece of what we do. If your team needs hands-on support or structured training, that lives in our other two practices.
