This guide provides a structured, step-by-step checklist to help organizations establish and maintain GDPR compliance. It begins with mapping personal data and creating a Record of Processing Activities to understand data flows, purposes, and retention. The checklist walks through identifying lawful bases for processing, implementing technical and organizational security measures, and establishing compliant notice and consent mechanisms. It also covers building DSAR workflows, evaluating international data transfer mechanisms such as SCCs and adequacy decisions, appointing required personnel like DPOs or EU representatives, and continuously reviewing and improving the program. The guide emphasizes that GDPR compliance is an ongoing operational process, not a one-time project.
