Introduction

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) came into force on 25 May 2018.

The new Regulation aims to standardise data protection laws and processing across the EU, giving people greater rights to access and control their personal information.

Our Commitment to GDPR Compliance

Ziot Solutions AS are committed to ensuring protection of all personal information that we hold, and to provide and to protect all such data. We recognise our obligations in updating and expanding this program to meet the requirements of GDPR.

Ziot Solutions AS are dedicated to safeguarding the personal information under our control and in maintaining a system that meets our obligations under the new regulations. Our practice is summarised below.

How We Ensure GDPR Compliance

Ziot Solutions AS have implemented the following measures to ensure compliancy.

  • Policies and Procedures — we have created a privacy policy and procedures to meet the requirements and standards of the GDPR and any relevant data protection laws, including:
    - Data Protection

    - Accountability and governance measures are in place to ensure that we understand and adequately disseminate and evidence our obligations and responsibilities; with a dedicated focus on privacy and the rights of individuals.

    - Data Retention and Erasure - We have procedures in place to meet the new "Right to Erasure" obligation.

    - Data Breaches - our procedures ensure that we have safeguards in place to identify, assess, investigate and report any personal data breach as early as possible. Our procedures have been explained to all employees.

    - International Data Transfers and Third-Party Disclosures - where Ziot Solutions AS stores or transfers personal information outside the EU, we have robust procedures in place to secure the integrity of the data. Our procedures include a continual review of the countries with sufficient adequacy decisions, as well as binding rules, or standard data protection clauses for those countries without.

    - Subject Access Request (SAR) - we have revised our SAR procedures to accommodate the revised 30-day timeframe for providing the requested information and for making this provision free of charge.
  • Privacy Policy - we have created our Privacy Notice(s) to comply with the GDPR, ensuring that all individuals whose personal information we process have been informed of why we need it, how it is used, what their rights are, who the information is disclosed to and what safeguarding measures are in place to protect their information.
  • Obtaining Consent - we have created our consent mechanisms for obtaining personal data, ensuring that individuals understand what they are providing, why and how we use it and giving clear, defined ways to consent to us processing their information
  • Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA) - where we process personal information that is considered high risk, we have developed stringent procedures for carrying out impact assessments that comply fully with the GDPR's Article 35 requirements. We have implemented documentation processes that record each assessment, allow us to rate the risk posed by the processing activity and implement mitigating measures to reduce the risk posed to the data subject(s).
  • Processor Agreements - where we use any third-party to process personal information on our behalf (ie Payroll, Recruitment, Hosting, etc), we have drafted compliant Processor Agreements and due diligence procedures for ensuring that they meet and understand their/our GDPR obligations.

Data Subject Rights

We provide easy-to-access information via the Privacy Policy on our website of an individual’s right to access any personal information that Ziot Solutions AS processes about them and to request information about:

  • What personal data we hold about them
  • The purposes of the processing

  • The right to lodge a complaint or seek judicial remedy and who to contact in such instances.

We have robust information security policies and procedures in place to protect personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.
