GDPR consulting

GDPR: a new paradigm

In comparison to previous European data privacy legislation, the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) can be considered as a new paradigm:

DPO (internal or external)

The appointment of a DPO (Data Protection Officer) is mandatory for public companies. It is also compulsory for private companies that process sensitive data or profile individuals on a large-scale.

Extra-territoriality

Organisations outside the European Union (whose head offices or servers are located outside the European Union) are also concerned by the GDPR when they target European citizens (especially on the web).

Right to be forgotten/Right to erasure

The right to be forgotten and the right to erasure allow individuals to have their digital footprints altered in order for them to take control of their digital life.

Data protection by design and by default

Data protection by design and by default introduces the concepts of data protection during the design of a product or service, without requiring any additional action from the person concerned (DP by default).

Accountability

The principle of accountability requires the data controller to demonstrate and prove that everything has been implemented according to the instructions outlined in the company’s privacy policy.

PIA (Privacy Impact Assessment)

The PIA (Privacy Impact Assessment) is produced in a number of cases, notably when the processing of personal data entails a risk for individuals.

Data breach

Data breaches need to be reported to data protection authorities (the CNIL in France, the ICO in the United Kingdom) by the controller within 72 hours, at the most. In the event of high risk, the controller must inform those concerned individually.

Data portability

This notion ensures data portability between different service providers (for example, in social media, service providers specialising in supplying and managing email addresses).

Security measures

It is necessary to ensure that the appropriate technical and organisational measures (TOMs) have been implemented in order to protect and secure personal data.

Fines

In case of non-compliance with the GDPR, fines can reach 4% of a company’s international financial turnover, or 20 million euros.

Data minimisation

Data minimisation ensures that as little data is collected as possible. Therefore, collected data has to be relevant and limited to what is necessary for it to serve its purpose.
