Takeaways 📝 Data Mapping is a crucial step in GDPR compliance, helping to identify and understand the flow of personal information within an organization. 🔍 A basic data map should answer key questions about the type of personal information held, where it's stored, why it's needed, its origin, and the legal basis for its use. 🏢 The script discusses various types of personal information such as employee details, customer interactions, and supplier contacts, all of which require careful data management. 📧 Email and phone systems are highlighted as common yet often overlooked places where personal information is stored, requiring attention in data mapping. 📑 Documents and spreadsheets are also mentioned as areas where personal data can proliferate, indicating the need for thorough data mapping to identify all data stores. 🤝 Contracts with employees, customers, and suppliers are the basis for permissions to use personal information, emphasizing the importance of clear terms and conditions. 📈 The script emphasizes the importance of understanding the purpose of data collection, such as for employment, service delivery, and marketing to prospects. 📲 The use of CRM systems for leads and prospects is highlighted, noting the complexity of obtaining and maintaining proper permissions for data usage, especially under GDPR. 🔑 Detailed data maps delve deeper into specific processes, such as free trials, to outline data flow, ownership, access, storage, and transfer locations. 🌐 Data transfer locations, such as data centers in Amsterdam and Dublin, are important to document for compliance, showing where data is geographically stored and accessed. 📋 The script concludes with a reminder of the importance of record-keeping for processing activities as part of the ongoing journey towards GDPR compliance.
