The British Information Commissioners Office (ICO) has released an extensive guide to explain the new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and assist corporations in achieving compliance.

One extremely useful first step, found in the ICO site is the Data Protection Self-Assessment questionnaire for organizations. This ICO Data Protection Checklist will assist you and your organization to determine the level of preparation that you have achieved as well as key items remaining to be done to achieve compliance.

We provide here the link to the first part which is :

The article pertains to you (you are a Controller) if you are the entity who decides what operations are to be performed on the data.

You can also see our simplified GDPR information page here.

We will provide similar information and links pertaining to Data Processors soon.
