Preparing for GDPR Compliance

Moving from awareness to action on GDPR compliance involves developing structured, repeatable processes to manage personal data responsibly.

Key preparation steps include:

  • Conducting a data inventory to map how personal data flows through your organization

  • Identifying lawful bases for data processing activities

  • Updating privacy notices to ensure transparency

  • Establishing procedures to manage data subject rights requests

  • Implementing technical and organizational safeguards to protect personal data

  • Reviewing contracts with vendors and partners to ensure appropriate data processing agreements are in place

  • Preparing for cross-border data transfer compliance, if applicable

Aligning GDPR efforts with broader programs like ISO 27001 and SOC 2 helps create a consistent approach to privacy and security across global operations.
