How is a data protection audit conducted?
Following agreement of a scope of work, which is formally documented in a letter of engagement, we:
- carry out an off site check of policies and procedures;
- carry out off site tests and interviews with key personnel;
- carry out an on site review of the procedures in practice;
- provide a report which outlines good practice and any areas of improvement with practical recommendations to help you to address these where appropriate;
- write an executive summary that you can publish on your website; and
- provide an audit compliance certificate which you can publish on your website.
What happens to the data protection audit reports?
Following completion of the audit, we provide a comprehensive report along with an executive summary. The audit report focuses on risk and makes observations and recommendations by priority.
We also provide you with a compliance certificate, showing the percentage of compliance within your organisation.
These documents can be published on your website to give customers confidence that you take the use of their personal data very seriously.
