Principles of GDPR
Fundamental principles of GDPR compliance
If personal data is processed, this processing must always be lawful and may only be carried out in a specific way. Therefore, data protection-compliant information handling is only guaranteed if the particular data protection principles specified in the GDPR are observed. Following the principles, we mention below, grants successful compliance for enterprises of any size. Also, they would be helpful for those individuals whose business is connected to handling personal data and who want to deal with it using the fundamental GDPR principles.
The GDPR has seven fundamental principles that
summarize the legislation requirements.
Transparency and lawfulness of the collected information
It must always be apparent to the person concerned about their personal data processing. "Secret" processing is not permitted.
Data Collection
Limited purposes for collecting personal data.
Data minimization
When processing data, only as much personal data may be collected as is necessary for the respective processing purpose. The principle applies: "As much data as necessary, as little data as possible." This is intended to protect the data subject from excessive disclosure of personal data.
Storage limitation
If personal data is no longer required, it must be deleted unless the deletion conflicts with statutory retention requirements (especially in commercial and tax law). As long as the retention period runs, the data will not be deleted but blocked by the person responsible for further use.
Integrity and confidentiality
Personal data must be treated securely and confidentially. In particular, unauthorized persons must not have access to it and must not be able to use the data or the equipment with which they are processed.
Accountability
Your company must be able to prove to supervisory authorities that it complies with all the requirements of the GDPR. For this reason, you must precisely document the legal, technical, and organizational measures you have taken to ensure data protection.
