Have You Considered Data Protection in Your Supply Chain?

Introduction

Cloud servers have proliferated in recent years, allowing for a diverse range of third-party suppliers to support even the smallest of micro-businesses.

While comparatively cheap and secure, the various competing laws and security standards applying to different jurisdictions and suppliers are often poorly understood.

This new virtual classroom seminar will look at the common data protection issues raised by the processing of personal data by third-party suppliers, covering a range of functions from HR and administration through to healthcare and employee benefits.

The applicability of principles from the legal basis of processing personal data through to how suppliers are required to respond to support a data controller in the event of a data protection breach will be scrutinised, before identifying the appropriate tools that can be used to reduce risk and demonstrate the necessary legal and regulatory compliance.

What You Will Learn

This live and interactive session will cover the following:

• How to evaluate a third-party supplier’s documentation
