Many
companies, organizations and authorities have to deal with
personal data of employees, clients or suppliers. GoodPriv@cy®
certifies proper handling of such data as required by data
protection acts. In addition, it applies good practice to
secure any other confidential information of the organization.
GoodPriv@cy®
fosters long-term support and effective improvement of compliance
with data protection rules. Thus, it raises confidence that
company know-how and private data are secure. These objectives
will be attained by setting up and operating a data and information
protection management system (DISM).
The
following steps lead to such protection:
- Analysis:
periodic risk auditing and assessment are initial steps
towards a comprehensive concept.
- Measures
and implementation: the results
of the previous steps form the basis for identifying and
implementing appropriate measures.
- Steering:
the entire process, as an integral component of the DISM,
is being reviewed and controlled by a steering committee.
- Certification:
the certification authority carries out the audits for the
GoodPriv@cy® certification procedures and grants the
right to use the label.
Personal
and confidential data are then protected according to best
practice.
