This white paper outlines briefly and accessibly for managers: data protection issues, who is affected by them, who needs to be aware of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (EU 2016/679) and touches on the key requirements. There is also a summary of the main themes of the Bureau Veritas Data Protection Technical Standard, which was developed in order to meet the Regulation’s intended certification approach to simplify and provide greater assurance for achieving GDPR compliance.

  • Demonstrate digital responsibility and target compliance
  • Safeguard your reputation
  • Provide products and services that meet customer demands
  • Address digital risks and opportunities
