James Evans

Founder & Principal Consultant — CIPP/E, AIGP

I came to data protection and compliance from the inside of a growing technology business, where I spent more than sixteen years delivering complex, data-intensive projects under real commercial pressure.

That background shapes everything Indigo does. I’ve sat where my clients sit: balancing regulators and deadlines, customers and budgets. So I don’t hand you a mountain of policies and wish you luck. I build a data protection regime that fits how your business actually runs.

Today I hold the IAPP’s CIPP/E and AIGP certifications, alongside ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer & Auditor and MCIPS credentials, and I advise UK, EU and international clients on data protection, privacy and AI governance.

Certified across privacy and AI

Qualifications matter in this field — they’re how a client, a regulator or a prospect’s procurement team know the advice is sound. Indigo is led by a practitioner certified across both established privacy law and the emerging frontier of AI governance.

Three principles behind every engagement

01

Practical, not theoretical

Real-world solutions you can implement, sized to your immediate needs — not a textbook regime that gathers dust.

02

Proportionate

Indigo focuses effort where the risk and reward actually are, so compliance never overwhelms a smaller team.

03

Plain English

No jargon, no scare tactics. You’ll always understand what Indigo is doing, why it matters and what it means for you.
