hello and welcome once again to the
guideline compliance journey this time
we're going to talk about a data
portability now the key thing to say
about data portability is that it
applies only if you are providing online
services it's very difficult to give an
export of information in a computer
readable format if all that information
is on paper so if we dive in and have a
look at our assessment and we take a
look at the data processing area this is
the reason we have the question in here
that says do you hold personal
information on paper records only now
clearly at guideline we like to think
we're quite modern in our approach so we
don't process records on paper only so
when looking at portability there are a
number of considerations the ability to
export the data is one but it also has
to be in the right format so we're going
to go and take a look at the guidelines
software because a lot of the questions
give you some insight into what that
format needs to be so first of all we
have to make sure that we tell the data
subjects about their right to
portability and we do that at guideline
and
so if we assume for a moment that we
have a data portability process in place
then we need to make sure that it meets
certain criteria it's in a common format
it's machine readable and it can be
transferred directly from guideline to
another company if our customer should
so wish and if it's machine readable
well it kind of implies that it's in a
structured format but we need to make
sure that that is part of the export
when we give the information to the
individual we need to make sure that we
give them all the information they
provided to us or any information that's
been generated by their activity on our
systems we don't have to give them other
information that we've inferred about
them however it might be considered best
practice to do that some other things
that are best practice these are based
on guidance on data portability issued
by the article 29 working party is if we
do an online service do we give
individuals the ability to directly
download that information from us
without making a request do we provide a
software API that enables them to
directly get that information and
finally do we tell individuals how
quickly they're going to get their data
when they request it so a lot of things
to consider a guideline we have a
process to respond to those requests for
information and we provide that
information in a CSV format but other
developers and other companies may take
different approaches but that's what we
do so that's all on data Portability and
that is the first of many rights which
is what we're going to be talking more
about next time so until then we hope
you find your compliant simple
