Keoghs’ GDPR project is now in full swing and with 25 May approaching, the various business teams are making the relevant changes to internal policies and processes, as well as kicking off the GDPR training modules for all staff.
There are defined budgets, project owners and tasks for each project section below, with staff across functions working towards filling the gaps we have identified.
While actions are undertaken across all areas there are a number of themes worth mentioning:
We have also developed a custom GDPR training package for all staff to complete prior to 25 May, which ensures that all staff understand the increased importance and implications of manging our personal data correctly.
We are still on schedule as planned and confidence of success is high.
Keoghs appreciates the importance of the prudent management of all its data and as such has embraced the EU General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) as an extension of the UK Data Protection Act (1998). As a firm, Keoghs is taking all steps to ensure compliance with the regulation in advance of 25 May 2018. While there is no official certification of compliance, we are confident from the analysis and project work undertaken already that the firm will be able to ensure a suitable level of conformity in line with the regulation and the ICO’s guidance.
As a firm, we commit to keeping our clients and partners up-to-date on our progress as well as make a statement when we believe we have achieved a suitable level of compliance with the regulation.
We will look to make an official statement on our GDPR page in advance of the 25th May ‘18
