The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will give people more control over their personal information when it is passed into law in May 2018. Among other things, it aims to make it easier for citizens to find out what data companies hold on them, and giving them more details about how their data is handled and what it is used for. In this short video we take a top level view of what this means, identify the policies, procedures and protocol needed to comply with the regulations.

Feel free to request the templates laura@thehiddenedge.co.uk. I am happy to share.

1. Consider the questions around the 8 Data Protection Principles

2. Create an evidence checklist to audit your policies, procedures and protocol around the 8 data protection principles

3. Create a priority action list with the IOC Protection Audit Report Template

Please do share your experiences with this model in the comments below.  I am building a portfolio of small business case studies and would love to include examples of what has worked well for you.

PS – If you need further help then give me a call on 07962 626604 to arrange a Skype session with me.
