IMPLEMENTATION

Summary
First, you will need to define the lawful basis for the processing of your data as we need to know this before we can proceed to the following steps and it may affect the removal process. Separating personal data into privacy categories is a prerequisite for the data report and data export functions, which are important for safeguarding data subject rights. Purpose categories and retention times need to be defined to ensure that statutory requirements and your specific business needs are met, and this will in turn result in your own records of processing. We need you to analyze your data flows so that we can help you set up secure transfer methods and you can establish clearly defined access rights settings.

    1. Mark lawful basis of processing

    Contract

    Personal data required for performance of employment contract.

    Consent

    Personal data not necessary for the performance of the employment contract.

    A lawful basis is required for processing personal data. Contract, consent, legitimate interest and statutory law are among the lawfulness categories available. You can use our Records of Processing as a template if you do not process personal data on the basis of consent or legitimate interest.

      2. Classify data for proper management

      Indirect
      Personal data relating indirectly to a person because the chance that it will apply to others is high and the distinctive nature is low.

      Direct
      Personal data that is unique or highly unique to only on individual.

      Sensitive
      Data that is sensitive due to its nature.

      All personal data that is part of our standard configuration is divided into the three categories mentioned above. The sensitive data category is in line with the limitative special categories of processing in the GDPR. Directly identifying personal data and sensitive data will be compiled with your records of processing in a data report to notify your employees of the typical type of data processed and the data export (portability) function will deliver all data in a machine-readable format.

        3. Perform data life-cycle settings

        Product
        Data is required for the product to fulfill its purpose.

        Legal
        Data is required for compliance with a statutory obligation.

        Customer
        Data that we process but do not need.

        Each lawfulness category may have one or more purposes of processing. We have added several predefined purposes as a recommendation, but you are welcome to adapt them to your business and responsibilities as a controller. The purposes are grouped by purpose classification. You will then need to set retention times based on the purposes of processing. We also provide recommended retention times tailored to your national statutory requirements in our Records of Processing for use at your discretion. Once you have set your purposes of processing and retention times, you will have what you need to prepare your records of processing.

          4. Set up access rights and control data flow

          Direct transmission
          Fewer processing operations on data reduces stress on integrity and accuracy.

          Email
          Sensitive or highly unique directly identifying personal data should be encrypted.

          Access
          Data should not be accessible to anyone who does not need it or should not have access to it.

          Controlling who has access to data and how it is transferred is essential for maintaining accuracy, integrity and security. Start by analyzing your data flows, especially at the end of the data life cycle. Based on your analysis, we can help you set up email encryption, a direct connection between your company and ours, and/or direct integrations with third parties such as unions, banks and employee benefit providers.
