About

Published by Alisha McKerron on 2 October 2018

Hi, I am Alisha, a multinational, freelance data protection solicitor, CIPP/E ,CIPM and former magistrate. I founded deskof‘s to help businesses navigate data protection regulations with confidence and clarity.

My blog serves as a resource for privacy professionals, offering practical insights into compliance, regulatory developments, and best practices.

My mission is to help strengthen public trust in organizations that handle personal data while ensuring businesses can thrive. Data protection shouldn’t stall innovation; it’s about striking the right balance between commercial goals and individual privacy rights. Through continuous professional development and real-world application, I strive to deliver grounded, actionable guidance.

Here are a few recent articles I have written:
