Checklist - Data Protection Processing Undertaking

A checklist of key data processing issues

The Problem

Reviewing your customer's data protection undertakings is time consuming and hard.

Related challenges include:

  • third party DPUs are not drafted with your group legal policy in mind
  • third party DPUs will often try to push as much potential liability onto your business as possible
  • anything unfamiliar takes a longer time to review and negotiate
  • it is hard to leverage junior resources on third party paper
  • it is hard to ensure consistency when reviewing third party paper
  • your team is already stretched
  • your team has to sign-off on this third party paper eventually…

Wouldn’t it be good if everyone in your business knew what to look for and could do so efficiently?
