GDPR Awareness & GDPR Self-Audit Workshop

Do you need proper hands on help preparing you and your business for the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which works for your budget?

Join us for a full day workshop on Wednesday 18th April 2018 hosted by solicitor and privacy professional, Yvonne Morris LLM LLB CIPP/E and organised by Hazel Parsons from wedmeetup.

Places are very limited so do be quick! The new law will be fully implemented in the UK on 25th May 2018 and there is lots to do before that!

AS YOU NEED TO DO PREP WORK, BOOKINGS WILL CLOSE AT MIDNIGHT ON SUNDAY 8th APRIL

The day is split in to two parts as follows:

PART 1 – GDPR INFORMATION (9:15 to 12:30 AM)

We will help you with:

  • gaining a solid working knowledge of the GDPR and what is involved;
  • understanding your responsibilities as a Data Controller or Data Processor;
  • knowing a Data Subject’s rights;
  • working with privacy notices and information requirements;
  • fulfilling security obligations, cross-border controls, data breach notifications and subject access requests; and,
  • understanding the role of the Supervisory Authority – the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

PART 2 – GDPR SELF-AUDIT (1:15 to 4:15 PM)

Begin your journey to GDPR compliance with a do-it-yourself GDPR audit session which is really a discovery exercise around your current data processing activities!

Carrying out a GDPR audit will demonstrate that you take the requirements of the GDPR seriously, respect its objectives to apply freedom to privacy with regards to the protection of, and lawful processing of, a data subject’s personal data.

For the price of less than one (1) hour’s legal advice, you will have a legal support and technical support on hand to give you invaluable advice and guidance throughout the day.

We will provide you with GDPR Audit Prep Tasks to prepare you for the afternoon session. This will mainly consist of data discovery exercises. We will send these to you in advance. The sooner you book, the sooner you will receive these and be able to make the most of this offer. Bring the GDPR Audit Prep Tasks with you on the day and your laptop so you can work on the excel audit document that we will provide you with on the day.

We will also provide you with a suite of key template forms/ policies that you may adapt and use in your business worth £500 in template form only. These are:

Data Processing Agreement;

Data Retention Policy;

Website Privacy Policy;

Website Cookie Policy;

GDPR Register Documents (Data Breach Register, Data Protection & IT Security Policies Register, Third Party Data Processor Register);

IT Security & Communications Policy;

After the event

Following the day, you will have the option to upload your completed audit document to CloudLegal whereupon a privacy practitioner will review and evaluate it and send you a report including a recommended schedule of GDPR compliance tasks for you to complete. This can be found here and all attendees will receive a discount coupon of 20% off (a saving of over £70!).

Venue and parking

The GDPR Awareness & GDPR Self-Audit Workshop will be held at the Pool Innovation Centre in Redruth. Venue map and parking information can be viewed here.

Managing data processing within your organisation is an ongoing and evolving process. There is no official rubber stamp of 100% GDPR compliance but what you can do is show that you are not lazy and you are GDPR aware and are implementing best practice. View our GDPR Fact sheet.

Embrace the positivity around the GDPR and compliance will come easy!
Build TRUST, be ACCOUNTABLE and Own it!
