Do not use a personal Dropbox to store client data - this would be considered a data breach.

If you use a shredding company, check over your contract.
Do they accept responsibility for the data once collected?
Make sure you're covered so that you are GDPR compliant.

If you use a third party to hold data (such as a payroll company) and they experience a breach, YOU must also inform the ICO.
You are still responsible for that data and must ensure that it is protected.

You need to secure both digital & hard copies of data.
If you keep all of your client's information in a filing cabinet, that will still need to be secured in order to be GDPR compliant.

If you're going to collect data from clients, consider data minimalisation.
What is the minimum amount of data you need to collect to run your business?
Do you need their date of birth? Spouse's name?
If not, don't ask for it!

There is no approved certification for GDPR compliance.
You do not need to do a paid course to ensure that you are compliant.

#GDPR #GDPR2018 #GDPRadvice #dataprotection #dataprivacy

[Percipience LLP @percipiencellp]

There is no lower limit to business size under GDPR.
If you are a small business, you stil need to be GDPR compliant.

Make sure that you have a process in place to deal with a data breach.

#GDPR #GDPR2018 #GDPRadvice #dataprotection #dataprivacy

If you have a data breach, you MUST inform the ICO within 72 hours of your noticing the breach.

A data subject is within their rights to sue your company if you do not notify them that there has been a data breach within 30 days.

Sensitive data includes records on someone's ethnic origin, sexual orientation, medical records and criminal records.

#GDPR #GDPR2018 #GDPRadvice #dataprotection #dataprivacy

[Percipience LLP @percipiencellp]

Make sure that you keep records on what data you store and the explicit consent to store it, in case you are ever audited by the ICO.

#GDPR #GDPR2018 #GDPRadvice #dataprotection #dataprivacy

[Percipience LLP @percipiencellp]

When collecting information from clients, you must be specific about what data you are collecting, what you will use the data for, and if you plan to share it with any third parties.
Your clients must give specific consent to this.

PECR will be replaced by EPR. Once enforced, you will no longer need to have a cookie pop up on your website. #GDPR #GDPR2018 #GDPRadvice #Brexit #dataprotection #dataprivacy #cookielaw

[Percipience LLP @percipiencellp]

Brexit will not affect the need to be GDPR compliant. If you hold any information on clients who are EU citizens, you must be GDPR compliant.

The definition of PPI will be much clearer under GDPR.
