GDPR Compliance Statement Template
Already included in our GDPR Documentation Toolkit, whilst it is not a mandatory GDPR document, many of our clients have been asked to produce (or are adding to their website) a GDPR Compliance Statement.
This document serves as a business plan for GDPR compliance, providing a summary of how an organisation is preparing for, and plans to comply with the new data protection Regulation.
If you want to produce such a GDPR Compliance Statement Template, include any actions you have taken/are taking to comply with the GDPR, including technical & organisational measures.
What to Include in Your GDPR Compliance Statement Template
Areas you can include in the statement are; DPO/data protection lead, security of processing; safeguarding measures for transfers, disclosures and the use of third-party processors; addressing individual’s rights, privacy notice(s) and consent controls and what your data protection commitments are.
While there is no official format for a statement, we have drafted a template document covering some of the common actions and describing the measures, controls and steps an organisation should be taking to prepare for the GDPR.

Available in a fully customisable Word.doc format, you can download this template free of charge from our website and are free to customise the template to suit your requirements.
