Romero Services has three certified GDPR Practitioners who are able to undertake the role of Data Protection Officer and provide support for your charity. The DPO service includes:
- A named contact responsible for your charity, with appropriate cover from other practitioners when necessary
- Annual school visit to check compliance
- A dedicated telephone helpline for advice and guidance over general data processing and implementation of new initiatives
- Annual training session for relevant staff
- Annual management report
- Support with Data Protection Impact Assessments
- Liaison as necessary between the ICO and the charity
Please be aware that the legislation is very clear that the Data Protection Officer is not personally responsible for non-compliance with data protection requirements. This responsibility stays with the organisation itself as does the responsibility for the data processing activities. Therefore it is essential that a considered choice is made when appointing to this role.
