When it comes to GDPR and other strict compliance-based regulations on data storage and use, a recent report states that Google does in fact comply not only with the regulations imposed by GDPR, but also with Privacy Shield, an agreement signed between EU member states and the United States.
While I was researching we ran into the inquiry “Are google docs gdpr compliant?”.
It replaces the 1995 EU Data Protection Directive, strengthening the rights that EU individuals have over their data, seeking to unify data protection laws across Europe. Our users can count on the fact that Google is committed to GDPR compliance across G Suite and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services when the GDPR takes effect on May 25, 2018.
One more question we ran across in our research was “What is Google doing to ensure GDPR compliance?”.
Google says it simply processes the data on behalf of the data controller and it is the responsibility of the data controller to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and demonstrate that any data processing is performed in compliance with the GDPR.
Yes, the forms are compliant but there some rules you have to follow to ensure they remain compliant . The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is mandated to protect private data. This means you have to work on your internal policies to ensure your websites and data systems comply.
What does the GDPR mean for G Suite and GCP?
International data transfers : The GDPR, like the Data Protection Directive it will replace, includes provisions on international data transfer mechanisms. To address current EU data protection laws, G Suite and GCP are certified under Privacy Shield.
What does the GDPR mean for your data export?
Data export: The GDPR includes certain requirements for the export of personal data. The data you store in Google Cloud is yours. We’ve included data portability commitments in our data processing terms for several years, and are continually working to enhance the robustness of our data export capabilities.
What are the data controller’s obligations under GDPR?
However, under GDPR, data controllers must ensure proper data security arrangements are in place to protect the personal data processed; the data controller has an obligation to ensure that it engage only those processors who themselves have appropriate technical and organisational measures (TOMS) in place.
