In today’s digital era, personal data protection has become a crucial aspect for businesses across the globe. The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is widely regarded as the most robust global privacy law in effect, and it outlines stringent obligations that organizations must comply with to limit how personal data can be used.

A platform, that enables organizations easily manage all aspects of their data protection activities, reducing the risk of breaches and improving their overall data management practices to maintain trust in their brand and stay ahead of the constantly evolving regulatory landscape.
Challenges
Keepabl’s Compliance SaaS was aimed to address the critical need for businesses to comply with GDPR regulations and safeguard their customers’ sensitive data privacy. To achieve this, the platform focuses on the eight fundamental data subject rights outlined by GDPR, such as the Right to be informed, access, rectification, and object to processing. Keepable SaaS needed to perform effective assessing, monitoring, and managing of data in a way that businesses remain compliant with all necessary regulations. However, integrating these features presented a significant challenge for Keepabl.
Here are some of the measures Keepabl needed to intrgrate in their SaaS
Organisations must obtain explicit consent from individuals for the processing of their personal data. This required implementing systems and processes to manage and record consent, as well as providing individuals with the ability to withdraw consent.
Organizations must ensure they have systems and processes in place to handle individuals’ requests including the right to access, rectify, erase personal data, and object to the processing of their data in a timely and effective manner.
Organizations must conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for any high-risk processing activities that involve personal data. This required identifying potential risks and implementing measures to mitigate those risks.
Any international transfer of personal data must be made to a country or organisation that provides an adequate level of data protection. This requires implementing appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules, to ensure data protection when transferring data internationally.
GDPR requires organizations to report data breaches to the relevant authorities within a timely manner. This requires implementing systems and processes to detect and report data breaches, as well as having a plan in place to respond to breaches.
