What does “module value” mean?
It is the price of the same work counted per module, at the prices in the table on this page. A package costs less because standard work takes less time. Module prices are real: work beyond a package's limits is charged at them.
Can I add modules to a package?
Yes. If you have, for example, a website or one activity more than the Essential package allows, you pay for the package and those modules. The price calculator picks the cheaper option for you.
Why doesn't the price depend on the number of employees?
Because the lawyer's work depends on what the company does with data. The law requires records of processing, a notice for each group of people and a contract with each processor. The record-keeping exemption for companies with fewer than 250 employees does not apply when processing is not occasional, as payroll is. art. 30 art. 13 art. 28
Is the employee briefing included?
No. Employee briefing and advice is a separate service, 4,000 MDL per session for up to 20 people. Every package includes a written note for employees and the confidentiality commitment. art. 32
In which language do we receive the documents?
In Romanian. Documents are drafted in Romanian; an authorised translation into Russian or English is charged separately, at the translator's rate.
Can I order only the assessment?
Yes. The assessment on its own costs from 3,900 MDL: interviews and a written report of what is missing under Law No. 195/2024, in order of priority, without drafting the documents. Every package starts with an assessment included in its price anyway, because the controller's measures must take into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing; that is why the price of a separate assessment is not deducted from a package ordered later. art. 24
Why now, if fines are phased in?
The reduction applies only to the amount of the fine: of the fine set by the Centre, 10% applies in the first year after the Law enters into force, 40% in the second and 100% from the third. The Centre's other corrective powers are not reduced, such as an order to bring processing into compliance or a temporary or definitive limitation of processing. Nor are data subjects' rights to lodge a complaint with the Centre and to receive compensation for the damage suffered. art. 60 art. 72 art. 76 art. 90
We have documents drafted under Law No. 133/2011. Why does it not cost less?
Because Law No. 133/2011 was repealed when Law No. 195/2024 entered into force, and the documents have to be checked again against the new Law: the references to the law, the legal bases, the retention periods, the contracts with processors. What still fits is kept, but checking it takes the same work. art. 90
We have already implemented the GDPR for EU clients. Do we need anything else?
Law No. 195/2024 transposes Regulation (EU) 2016/679, so much of the work carries over, but the Law has rules of its own. The supervisory authority is the National Centre for Personal Data Protection. Transfers from Moldova to countries outside the European Economic Area follow the conditions of the Moldovan Law. Processing the IDNP on the basis of legitimate interest requires specific safeguards, and fines are set under the Moldovan Law. The documents must refer to Law No. 195/2024. art. 44 art. 53 art. 55 art. 88
Can I produce the documents with an AI model instead of hiring you?
An AI model can be a starting point, but the Law does not ask for generic documents: they must describe exactly how your company processes data, that is, which data you collect, for which purposes and on which legal basis, who receives it, how long you keep it and which security measures you apply. The model does not know these facts and does not check them, it may cite Regulation (EU) 2016/679 instead of Law No. 195/2024 or articles that do not exist, and the company remains responsible for the documents. Do not enter data about employees or clients into a public AI service: its provider then receives that data, often outside the Republic of Moldova. We start from conversations with your team, check every document against the text of the Law and answer your questions after delivery. If you already have documents made with AI, we can review them as part of the assessment. art. 13 art. 24 art. 28 art. 44
