Summary
Diogo Duarte is a data protection consultant and founder of Advance Privacy with eight years’ experience helping multinational organisations and public bodies translate complex global privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA, PIPL, LGPD) into practical, operational controls. Based in Geneva, he combines hands-on privacy program delivery—DPIAs, vendor assessments, training and incident readiness—with strategic advisory roles at Avery Dennison and Linklaters and expert appointments at the EDPB and Council of Europe. He has strengthened privacy in regulated sectors such as healthcare, finance and technology, and brings rare in-house legal experience from government and funding authorities where he led compliance, anti-fraud recovery and contract work. A teacher and researcher, Diogo also builds privacy awareness through academic modules and practical workshops, and complements his privacy practice with full‑stack development fluency (Next.js, Vue, Laravel), enabling tighter collaboration with engineering teams.
