Fabulous piece by my colleague Deeya Barik. Though there are a whole bunch of tools and services out there that can help you draft a privacy notice (like the #ICO's own privacy notice generator), you will still need to understand the data that your organisation is processing. Deeya explains how you can undertake this mapping activity and make sure that your privacy notice communicates what it should! #privacy #privacynotice #Article13 #GDPR

🔒 The Information Commissioner's Office just released a new privacy notice generator to simplify GDPR compliance for UK SMEs. Is your organisation ready to leverage this tool effectively?

GDPR Compliance: Key Steps for Businesses The GDPR remains crucial for businesses processing EU resident data. Here are 4 foundational steps to achieve compliance: 1. Data Inventory: Conduct a data audit to identify and categorize the personal data you collect. This forms the basis for your GDPR strategy. 2. Transparency by Design: Develop a clear, user-friendly privacy notice outlining data usage and user rights. Easy access is essential. 3. Consent with Confidence: Obtain informed and unambiguous consent for data collection. Remember, consent can be withdrawn, so have a clear opt-out process. 4. Security as a Priority: Implement robust security measures to safeguard personal data from breaches and unauthorized access. Following these steps demonstrates your commitment to data privacy and fosters trust with EU customers. What is your opinion? #GDPR #dataprivacy #compliance

Privacy Contracts: In comparing India's DPDP Act, 2023 with the GDPR and other frameworks, it's evident that differing approaches can pose challenges for businesses managing data privacy. Unlike the GDPR and various other frameworks, which provide standard contract clauses or model contracts for data sharing or transfer, the DPDP Act places minimal compliance obligations on Data Processors, instead emphasizing contractual arrangements with Data Fiduciaries. This difference can lead to complexities and potential conflicts between Data Fiduciaries and Processors, especially when each party adheres to its own privacy frameworks and templates. The absence of standardized contract clauses within the DPDP Act further underscores the need for careful negotiation and adaptation by businesses aiming to uphold the privacy rights of Data Principals. Recognizing and addressing these discrepancies is crucial for businesses operating internationally, ensuring they can effectively navigate diverse regulatory landscapes while safeguarding data privacy. #DataPrivacy #DPDPAct #GDPR #StandardContracts #DataProtection
