Summary lesson 1 – Overview:

  • GDPR will replace the EU Data Protection Directive 1995 and the UK Data Protection Act 1998.
  • As a regulation GDPR applies directly and should reduce the level of national data protection variation across member states of the EU.
  • GDPR applies to organisations based in the EU and organisations based outside the EU if they process the personal data of EU residents.
  • GDPR introduces much tougher financial penalties for non-compliance with data protection.

Summary Lesson 2 – Roles and data:

  • You must be familiar with the role you play so that you are aware of your responsibilities under GDPR.
  • Personal data will include location data and online identifiers.
  • If your primary basis for processing personal data is that you have consent, then this consent must be informed, specific and unambiguous.
  • You must obtain an individual’s explicit consent if you wish to process special category data.
  • GDPR highlights the importance of protecting children’s personal data used for online activities.

Summary Lesson 3 – Principles:

  • GDPR principles determine how personal data should be processed.
  • If you process personal data you must comply with these principles.
  • GDPR includes a new accountability principle for data controllers and processors whereby they must be able to demonstrate their compliance.
  • Privacy should be the default and incorporated into the design of systems.

Summary Lesson 4 –  Individuals’ rights:

  • Individuals have the right to obtain information from the data controller on how and where their data is being used and for what purpose.
  • The data controller must provide this information free of charge and in a commonly used electronic format.
  • If rights are infringed, individuals can take legal action against data controllers and data processors.
