Develop Necessary Documentation for GDPR Compliance
A quick reference guide for retention, privacy, cookies, and the data protection officer role.
- It can be an overwhelming challenge to understand what documentation is required under the GDPR.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
- Hiring the right data protection officer (DPO) isn’t always easy. The person you think might be best may result in a conflict of interest. Be aware of all requirements and be objective when hiring for this role.
- Keep retention to the bare minimum. Limiting the amount of data you are responsible for limits your liability for protecting it.
- Under the GDPR, cookies constitute personal data. They require a standalone policy, separate from the privacy policy. Ensure pop-up cookie notification banners require active consent and give users the clear opportunity to reject them.
Impact and Result
- Save time developing documents by leveraging ready-to-go templates for the DPO job description, retention documents, privacy notice, and cookie policy.
- Establishing GDPR-compliance documentation will set the foundation for an overall compliant program.
