Chapter IV - Controller and Processor

GDPR GDPR-Art.30: Records of processing activities

Maintain a written, including electronic, record of processing activities under the controller's responsibility containing the name and contact details of the controller, any joint controller, the representative and the data protection officer, the purposes of the processing, a description of the categories of data subjects and of personal data, the categories of recipients including those in third countries and international organisations, any transfers to a third country or international organisation with that destination identified and, for transfers under the second subparagraph of Article 49(1), the documentation of suitable safeguards, the envisaged time limits for erasure of each category where possible, and a general description of the Article 32(1) technical and organisational security measures where possible. A processor must maintain an equivalent record of the categories of processing carried out on behalf of each controller. Make the record available to the supervisory authority on request. The obligation does not apply to an organisation employing fewer than 250 persons unless the processing is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, is not occasional, or includes special category or criminal offence data.

Other controls in Chapter IV - Controller and Processor

You are reading one control. How much of GDPR have you already done?

GDPR GDPR-Art.30 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of GDPR your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27701:2019 and 21 of 41 GDPR controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 0 were rejected on the ISO 27701:2019 pair alone.
