GDPR Preparation for Applications Project Closure

Project to support the work required across Application Services to ensure compliance with the legislation completed.

The new GDPR legislation came into force on 25 May 2018.  The  GDPR Preparation for Applications project  (COM042) provided support for the work required across Application Services to ensure compliance with the  legislation.

The project delivered:

  • Internal register for Apps Services

  • Assessment of  services which required privacy notices (and progressed publication of these)

  • Evaluation of other work required for Apps owned services for May 2018 and beyond

  • Recommendations for Apps Services Privacy Impact Assessments

  • Evaluation of working practices and recommendations for future work to make changes to these.

The project also developed an action plan for colleagues within Apps to work together to ensure compliance with GDPR aligned to the areas identified.  These actions have been ongoing throughout the project and will continue beyond the closure of the project.
