GDPR 2020 are you AGE compliant ?





GDPR 2020 - are you AGE compliant ?

Are you #GDPR compliant? When do you last review and update your GDPR policies and procedures, when did you last train staff in Data Protection.  The amount of companies and organisations reporting breaches to the ICO continues to rise.

Ultimately and most can be attributed to management and staffs’ poor understanding, implementation of and adherence to, the GDPR legislation.

Last week the ICO issued a new and final set of rules designed to improve the protection of children.  Do you know what the 15 standards are?  Do your staff and especially those involved in developing and commissioning products and services understand them fully?

Are all of your online systems, procedures, policies, products and services age appropriate?

The final code expects that the best interests of children will be a primary consideration when designing and developing online services. It gives practical guidance on data protection safeguards that ensure online services are appropriate for use by children.

The code covers 15 key areas

1.   Best interests of the child
2.   Data protection impact assessments
3.   Age appropriate application
4.   Transparency
5.   Detrimental use of data
6.   Policies and community standards
7.   Default settings
8.   Data minimisation
9.   Data sharing
10.  Geolocation
11.  Parental controls
12.  Profiling
13.  Nudge techniques
14.  Connected toys and devices
15.  Online tools

Using Social Media at Work - Staff rights and responsibilities

Why you need a Policy NOW ! Two recent Employment Tribunal cases, one involving Face book and another one with Twitter have one clear message in common for modern employers – the urgent need to have clear up to date, precise policies and procedures in place about the use of Social Media at work. Both the cases profiled below could have been lost by the employer had they not previously taken proactive policy steps to keep up to date with an ever changing scene. Face Book The Face Book case arose from an unfair dismissal claim. The Employment Tribunal held that a pub manager was fairly dismissed for gross misconduct after she made inappropriate comments on Face book about two customers who had verbally abused and threatened her.   The Face Book chat took place while the employee was at work and did not reflect her upset or anger at the customers, but appeared to be a joke between friends.  However, a wider audience was able to look at her Face Book page, including r
