The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the European regulation governing the processing of personal data. The protection of personal data encompasses the systems, policies and procedures used by companies to ensure the security of the data they process and to protect the privacy of the data subjects.
Any organisation (public or private, commercial or associative), regardless of its size, country of operation and activity, that processes personal data as long as it is established within the European Union or its activity targets European residents directly.
Because it is not an option ! One of the consequences of a company’s failure to comply is a financial penalty of up to 4% of the global annual turnover or a fine of 20 million euros ; not to mention the collateral damages such as deterioration of the brand’s image, loss of turnover in particular.
Adopted by the European Parliament on April 14, 2016, its provisions have been directly applicable since May 25, 2018. You should be in compliance with the GDPR since May 25, 2018 BUT it is never too late to do well!
LegalUP Consulting has developed an online audit tool covering all the processing performed by you and your ecosystem, which should help to identify the steps to be taken in order to comply.
Our online compliance audit :
The GDPR Compliance Tool is an online audit that allows you to accurately assess your organisation’s compliance with the GDPR. From the beginning of the audit, we will provide you with an attestation bearing witness of the compliance procedures undertaken by you with the firm. Your answers will also allow your online lawyers to send you a consultation with recommendations on the remaining steps, if any, to be implemented by your organisation to fully comply with the GDPR.
The questionnaire is extremely thorough and reviews all the personal data processing performed by you and your contractors. It encompasses all the questions that your organisation must ask itself, starting with a cartography of the processed data, the legal bases chosen, the review of the unavoidable principles governing the processing, the processes to be established, the documentation to keep up to date, the respect of the principles of “Accountability”, security measures for information systems, the supervision of data transfers (especially outside the EU) etc.
Your answers to the GDPR Compliance Tool questionnaire are covered by professional secrecy and confidentiality of exchanges under the conditions defined by the National Regulations of the Lawyer’s Profession and the Rules of Procedure of the Paris Bar.
Your compliance with the GDPR using the GDPR Compliance Tool is done in three stages:
