Available exclusively online, this guide aims to explain the key principles of the GDPR as well as the fundamentals of data protection, illustrating them with examples and real-world scenarios.
It outlines best practices to be implemented within organizations, using diagrams, videos, checklists, and decision trees, particularly regarding information that must be given to data subjects, data breaches, and management of requests from data subjects to exercise their rights.
In particular, the guide includes a very practical interactive form to help determine whether the data controller must conduct a data protection impact assessment (DPIA).
This guide therefore makes it easy to understand one’s obligations under personal data protection regulations.
For your information, this guide is available in eighteen languages, including French, English, and Spanish.
As a reminder, it should be noted that the CNIL had already published, in April 2018, a GDPR awareness guide specifically for micro-enterprises and SMEs, which addresses the principles of data protection, the benefits for the company, as well as the key steps to take action.
