GDPR is starting: trbo cooperates with Usercentrics

Munich, May 24, 2018 – In response to the upcoming General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), trbo is forging a strategic alliance with Usercentrics.  trbo, the technology company specializing in smart sales incentives, and Usercentrics, the data protection experts, will be joining forces to support webshops and e-commerce managers in operating websites in compliance with the GDPR.

Both partners will benefit from the close cooperation: trbo will provide its customers with the legally compliant software solution of the Consent-as-a-Service start-up. In return, Usercentrics will be able to draw on the Munich-based company’s many years of e-commerce know-how and extensive network. 

“Together, we want to take away the fear of online merchants having to fight their way through the legal pitfalls of GDPR alone. trbo and Usercentrics offer an all-round carefree package: a qualified and individualized display of content and advertising on the website that simultaneously meets all the GDPR-requirements,” states Felix Schirl, Managing Director of trbo.

“With trbo, we have found a strategically suitable partner for the rapid spread of our data protection technology. Together, we are able to reconcile the rights of users and the interests of website operators in a legally secure manner,” adds Mischa Rürup, founder and CEO of Usercentrics.
