GDPR Compliance Toolkit with AviaHire

You must have noticed some companies and sites asking for your personal information so that they can serve you better!

But do they seriously safeguard your personal information??

That’s where the General Data Protection Regulation comes into the picture. In May 2018 a new European privacy regulation called GDPR was enforced and permanently changed the way you, as a business, collect, store and use customer data.

Recently, TrustArc found that only 20% of businesses believe they are now GDPR compliant.

Sounds bad right?? Well, it is…

So, whether your business is in technology, retail, entrepreneur, or travel their privacy should be the top priority, and having a GDPR compliance kit plays a vital role in achieving customers’ trust.

Customer’s Right

Right to delete

The customer or the company can delete the personal data if it is no longer necessary or important for the purpose of business

Right to inform

Transparency is the key here. Customers have the right to be informed about the collection and use of their personal data.

Right to rectification

This right is closely linked to the controller’s obligations under the accuracy principle of the GDPR (Article (5)(1)(d)). A customer can make a request for rectification verbally or in writing and the receipt for the same will be granted.

Right of access

Customers have the right to obtain a copy of their personal data as well as other supplementary information. It helps individuals to understand how and why you are using their data, and check you are doing it lawfully.
