The new General Data Protection Regulation (RGPD), which replaces the 1995 Directive, will be implemented on 25 May 2018 and has direct application in each member state of the European Union. It is the responsibility of organizations to demonstrate compliance with legislation, organization and information, response to the rights of holders, integration of the concepts of Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default, as well as of the efficient administration and security of the systems, under penalty of incurring severe penalties.
In this context, the first task that the companies will have to carry out is the evaluation of their current state and verification of the effective fulfillment of the provisions of the regulation.
In order to support organizations in conducting a first self-assessment to identify where they are or do not conform to the main provisions of the Regulation, LCG has designed an online tool. This has two questionnaires:
- High-level self-assessment – basic self-assessment questionnaire for first identification of the level of compliance with the RGPD.
- Detailed self-assessment – detailed self-assessment questionnaire. Its purpose is to assess the level of compliance of organizations with the RGPD and includes questions about all major organizational areas affected by it (Administration, Legal, Procedural, Technological / IT, Human Resources, Communication & Marketing).
Access these questionnaires at this link.
In addition to this tool, LCG also has a set of RGPD consulting services that include: customized diagnostics, training and awareness raising actions, PIA (Privacy Impact Assessments), implementation of measures and solutions, project management and audits.
