Data Protection Fundamentals

This introductory-level programme will help you ensure your teams can identify and are compliant with their data protection tasks under the relevant data protections acts. This course is also relevant to UK laws post Brexit. At the end of this course the delegate will be better aware of the need for data protection, understand the data protection laws and how they can be interpreted and apply to your business environment.

What is Data Protection? – Background & Development

• Privacy development as a human right
• Data protection development as a human right (somewhat close to privacy, but a separate & distinct right).
• How & when did data protection begin, and how has it since developed? (For example, the first national data protection law was in Germany in 1970; the first international law was Convention 108 of the Council of Europe in 1981. And the current main EU data protection law is the GDPR.)

Key GDPR definitions – the actual meanings of which are too often misunderstood, e.g.:

• Personal Data
• Processing
• Data Subject
• Controller
• Processor
• Data Breach

Obligations of Data Controllers and Data Processors – what are their duties? In particular the GDPR Article 5 principles:

• Lawfulness, Fairness and Transparency
• Purpose Limitation
• Data Minimisation
• Accuracy
• Storage Limitation
• Integrity and Confidentiality

Rights of individuals – primarily:

• Accessing Data
• Rectification of Data
• Erasure of Data (“right to be forgotten”)
• Restriction of Processing
• Data Portability
• Right to Object
• Right to Complain
• Right to Compensation

Enforcement of the GDPR and other Data Protection laws

• Supervisory Authorities (e.g., Ireland’s Data Protection Commission)
• Their tasks and authorities to investigate and enforce data protection
