Before we see the changes that will come, let\u2019s remember few basic things:<\/p>\n
What are “personal data” and “processing”?<\/span><\/h2>\nPersonal Data<\/span><\/strong>: Any information identifies a natural person such as name & occupation, marital status, age, residence, email address, bank account details, but also IP address.<\/p>\nSensitive personal data<\/strong><\/span>: data on racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of trade unions and information on medical history, erotic life and criminal prosecutions or convictions.<\/p>\nSome of these are collected and used only under specific circumstances, for example with your own consent or when the national law permits it.<\/p>\n
“Processing<\/span><\/strong>” data is considered to be an act performed with or without the use of automated means in personal data. Some examples include collecting, organizing, storing, adapting, using, spreading and deleting them.<\/p>\nYour new rights<\/span><\/h2>\nPersonal data is characterized as a resource, more important than oil<\/a>.<\/span> It makes sense if we consider the “power” that companies and organizations acquire through their data collection. But how many of us do we know our rights in the information we share? Let’s look at some of the basic rights we have as European citizens under the GDPR.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/1.png\")
The right of access<\/span><\/strong>: the right to know whether your data are being processed and if so, access it with loads of additional stipulations. You can request a free e -copy form of your\u00a0stored\u00a0<\/span>data by a particular company.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/2.png\")
The right to “be forgotten”<\/span><\/strong>: You can withdraw the consent you have given for the use of your personal data by an organization or company as you can even ask for their deletion.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3.png\")
The right to data portability<\/span><\/strong>: You can transfer your data whenever you want it from one service provider to another.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/4.png\")
The right to be informed<\/strong><\/span>: Transparency and choice are two cornerstones of the GDPR regulation. At the outset of any request for data, businesses must be as clear as possible on how they will process data, who will process them, and where it could end up.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/5.png\")
Right to rectification<\/strong><\/span>: When your personal data are inaccurate, then controllers need to correct them indeed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/6.png\")
The right to <\/span><\/strong>restriction of processing<\/span><\/strong>: Simply said, your right to limit the processing of your personal data with several rules and exceptions of course.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/7.png\")
Right to object<\/span><\/strong>: You can immediately stop processing your data for marketing purposes. Once you send the request, any processing should be stopped immediately.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.papaki.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/8.png\")
Notification right<\/span><\/strong>: In the event of a breach of data that compromises your personal data, you should receive relevant information within 72 hours of the first time that the violation was identified.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Do you own a business? Then it concerns you!<\/span><\/h2>\nHow does GDPR affect your business?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe new regulation applies to all businesses (private and public)<\/span><\/strong> who store or manage the personal data of employees, associates, customers or other natural persons. Regardless where your company’s headquarters are if your products or services are directed to customers within the EU, you are legally required to adopt the new regulation to avoid fines or other legal penalties.<\/p>\nDepending on the data you collect and the size of your business, you need to make improvements so that the processes that follow the GDPR delimitations are compatible. You would advise a lawyer to get detailed information on the steps you should take to be ready on March 25th!<\/p>\n
What should your company do?<\/span><\/h2>\nProtect the rights of individuals who give you their data.<\/span><\/h4>\nThere is no specific technical direction in the GDPR<\/span> – a magical recipe – to prepare yourself. Each organization is free to decide the policies, practices, and tools that it will adapt to comply with the requirements of the regulation.<\/p>\nBasic obligations of your business<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nYou must acknowledge the responsibility<\/span> of maintaining and processing personal data. Create files with the data you collect – understand which personal data are stored, where they came from, with whom you share them and if they are still relevant and necessary for the purposes you initially decide to store them.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nMake sure your business can meet the requests for personal data<\/span>. According to the GDPR, every EU citizen has the right to request their data to be deleted, transferred and modified. The technological means and procedures you follow should allow completion of such requests within a month.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nCreated a basis for the processing of personal data<\/span> harmonized in\u00a0GDPR. For personal data collections, you must first obtain the person’s consent, and you must clearly define the period of the time that you will use them and the exact purpose of storing them. Consent can be withdrawn anytime, so it’s wise to examine another legal basis you can use for data processing.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nPrepare your business for possible data breaches<\/span> – please be assured that the procedures your company is following will allow you to update the data protection authority within 72 hours of your recognition.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nMake sure to sign legal agreements<\/span> when transmitting data to countries that have not been approved by the EU authorities.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nSet up a Data Protection Officer<\/span>. Check if your business needs a data protection officer. This depends on the type and number of the data your company collects.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\nWhy do the rules change?<\/span><\/h3>\nIt is necessary to protect and preserve our personal data as their safety is directly linked to other fundamental human rights. The lack of confidence in the old rules and the need for a uniform regulation for all EU countries led to the GDPR.<\/p>\n
