Personal data and its proper processing and protection are already a key part of the daily activities of every business, especially after the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) framework came into force. Personal data and its proper administration and transfer are a key part of the daily activities of almost every business. Of course, personal data has long ceased to be solely a subject of protection under the GDPR – it now lies at the heart of new regulations such as the EU AI Act, the EU Data Act, DORA, the digital marketing rules, etc. These frameworks treat personal data not only as something to be protected but also as a strategic asset that is used, shared, and regulated within the digital economy. For this reason, GDPR compliance should also encompass alignment with these other regulations, ensuring maximum integration with existing rules and policies.
To achieve and maintain regulatory compliance, we can assist you to:
- Ensure that your organisation meets all these requirements
- Implement analysis of and structuring the personal data flows in the organisation and the legal basis for their processing
- Draft Data Processing Agreements (DPA) to execute with your partners
- Present correct and complete information about the data you process to all categories of data subjects
- Check and ensure the compliance of your website or e-shop with the privacy and data protection rules
- Evaluate your procedures for processing and storing sensitive data, metadata, and transferring data through servers in Europe and/or in any third country
- Implement Privacy by design & by default
- Develop compliance of your Terms and Conditions / Internal rules regarding the personal data you collect from your customers, employees, etc.
- Make sure you have adequate response and protection in case of personal data violation
- Compliance audits
