10. ... it isn’t only your website that needs to be GDPR compliant

Changes with #GDPR will change a large part of the business, and in the last few blogs we have focused solely on its effect on Digital Marketing

As you start changing your website and digital activity to adjust, that there are a whole lot of issues you need to consider


The data protection commissioner has provided some excellent tips

but here are a few key questions to be considering now right now

• You probably have personal data stored in various places around the business. Do you have a good knowledge & understanding, and documented record of the data you hold?
• Do you need to either gain or refresh consent for the data that you possess?
• Do you have a defined written policy for how long you keep personal data, so you don’t retain it unnecessarily, and ensure it’s kept up to date?
• Is your data being held securely, keeping in mind both technology and the human factors in data security? Keys, Pin Codes, Encryption etc.
• Whether you are a data controller or data processor (or both), do you have the correct legal arrangements/documents in place?

​So, the underlying issue with the new GDPR  is to identify and have in place contracts with your third-party data processors to protect both your own interests.
