Personal data has become one of the most valuable business assets. Every entrepreneur who processes the data of their customers, employees or contractors must comply with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). A GDPR audit allows you to detect irregularities and implement effective solutions in line with European data protection regulations. Our law firm offers comprehensive support in the field of personal data protection – from conducting audits and preparing documentation to providing ongoing legal advice and assistance in implementing GDPR-compliant procedures.
Conducting a GDPR audit is the first and most important step towards ensuring that your company’s operations comply with personal data protection regulations. Our activities focus on verifying whether the entity processes personal data in accordance with the European Parliament and Council Regulation and national regulations.
The scope of the audit includes an analysis of internal procedures, identification of the legal basis for data processing, assessment of privacy policies, the scope of data processed, and the consent mechanisms used. We also check whether the documentation (such as information clauses, records of processing activities, and processing agreements) is complete and up to date. The audit report identifies specific risks and areas for improvement, which allows you to increase data security and ensure compliance with the GDPR.
As a law firm specializing in personal data protection law, we have many years of experience in advising businesses from various industries on GDPR compliance. We have conducted GDPR audits for financial institutions, technology companies, entities from the healthcare, education, and e-commerce sectors, among others. We offer not only formal audits, but also practical advice tailored to the specific nature of the company and its industry risks.
We also help companies that have already experienced data breaches by preparing reports for the Personal Data Protection Office and procedures to prevent such situations from recurring. We have implemented the GDPR in both sole proprietorships and large commercial companies employing hundreds of employees. Our experience also includes the assessment and updating of documentation and supervision of the practical implementation of audit recommendations.
Entrusting your GDPR audit to KWKR is a decision that minimizes the risk of sanctions from the supervisory authority and increases trust in your company. We offer comprehensive services covering not only the analysis and identification of non-compliance, but also the development and implementation of customized procedures. With our help, you can be sure that your data is processed in accordance with the regulations, properly secured, and that your documentation meets legal requirements.
We also help prepare entrepreneurs for inspections by the Personal Data Protection Office and train staff in data processing, the responsibilities of the controller, and compliance with the GDPR. Our goal is not only to ensure legal compliance, but also to bring about a real improvement in the quality of data management in your organization. This translates into greater legal, reputational, and business security.
The GDPR, or General Data Protection Regulation, imposes numerous obligations on data processors, ranging from informational and documentary to organizational and technical. A GDPR compliance audit is not just a formality, but a real tool that allows you to prevent errors before they lead to privacy breaches or financial penalties. It is worth remembering that the obligations under the GDPR do not only apply to large corporations – any company that processes personal data in any way is subject to the provisions of this regulation.
Entrepreneurs should regularly audit their data processing and update their documentation in line with changes in their business, case law, and the guidelines of the Personal Data Protection Office. Data processing agreements with third parties are also important and must meet specific legal requirements. Compliance with the GDPR is not only an obligation – it is also an investment in the security of your company.
