When it comes to Data Privacy and Protection, GDPR leads the way. The European Union brought General Data Protection Regulation into enforcement on 25th May 2018 to provide specific guidance on how Personally Identifiable Information (PII) should be recorded, stored and transferred without overstepping the right to privacy of the EU citizens

  • All companies across the globe that collect, and process personal data of EU citizens have to comply with GDPR. An organisation can be a data controller or processor or both based on the role it plays in handling Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

    As a data controller, the organization is responsible for the security and accountability of personal data.

    Any other organization functioning as a partner or as a service provider and in that capacity has access to PII – then the partner / service provider is treated as a data processor and is liable to meeting the requirements defined under GDPR.

    GDPR clearly lays down the responsibilities and liabilities for data controllers, data processors and joint controllers.

  • All the entites who are GDPR compliant must renew there certifications after every three years
  • Before implementing the regulatory requirements, we make sure that your organization has enough understanding of the regulation and why and where it is applicable to your product and service.

    After identifying PII, we will review the existing set up against the requirements outlined in the regulation to identify gaps in the organization’s GDPR preparedness.
