H. OBLIGATIONS RELATING TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA
H.1.) LIMITING PHYSICAL ACCESS TO THE “COMPANY’S” PERSONNEL TO VIEW/ EDIT SUBJECT’S DATA. INTEGRITY/CONFIDENTIALITY
According to the principle of integrity/confidentiality, data are processed in a manner that ensure appropriate security, including protection against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organizational measures.
Therefore, data information is accessed only by the departmental personnel that will use them for the completion of their duties. Access in this case means not just by staff, but also by people outside the Company.
Data are not shared with the other departments informally.
Personal data transferred to the Company are transmitted only to the competent employees and not to an uncontrolled group of personnel or any other recipients.
Personal data are not disclosed to unauthorized people either within the company or externally.
Staff members who have access to personal data are subject to a confidentiality obligation (e.g. via a clause in the employment agreement) and also a Confidential Disclosure Agreement (CDA) shall be signed with third parties to protect private or confidential information from becoming public or more widely known.
For each confidentiality level it may be worth setting out the broad security measures to be followed, such as password protection, clear desk policy, entry control.
This principle may be relaxed in the case of information which poses a low risk: for example, a list of business contacts may be made generally available, even if this means people having access who don’t strictly need it.
The Company’s personnel are periodically trained in order to understand the responsibilities when handling data.

H.2 STORAGE SAFETY/SECURITY GUIDELINES FOR HARD COPIES AND ELECTRONIC FILES
COMMUNICATION OF DATA AND SENSITIVE DATA
Hard files are secured in locked cupboards.
Keys/ access to the cupboards are provided only to personnel whose duties are directly involved with the respective documents/ records.
Appropriate digital security/ organizational measures are established for controlling the access to the electronic filing system, including backup procedures and emergency planning.
Strong passwords are used for accessing electronic files/ user accounts.
These passwords shall never be shared with other persons either within the Company or externally.
The access to the server room is prohibited. The door is always locked, and digital security measures are established by the Company
All employees implement the “Clear and lock” policy which means to “keep the desk clear” and “the computer screen locked” practice when the controller is away from his desk.
Employees keep all data secured, by taking sensible precautions and following the guidelines below:
Encryption tools are used when the controller communicates sensitive data via email.
Implementation of technical and organizational measures to ensure that data compliance measures are considered and integrated in the data processing activities (privacy by design) (i.e. email accounts: To use official email addresses – not unofficial, private, or any other non-secured email accounts or non-licensed programs).
For online services, it must be ensured that there is an automated way for privacy notices and policies to ensure that individuals are told about their right to object, clearly and separately, at the point of ‘first communication’.
The controller respects and treats everyone’s personal data with the same respect he/she would wish for his/her own. For that reasons the following are considered:
Minimizing the generation of personal data by email and on paper – the less personal data are being created and circulated, the easier it is to protect. Only send information which is necessary for the handling of the case.
Cybersecurity – Ensure that computer systems are secured and make use of security measures such as password protection and secured email servers when transferring attachments containing passports, medical reports, contracts of employment etc.
Anonymization – Aim to use identifiers for individuals, instead of names.
Start afresh – if the controller cannot avoid identifying an individual, do so once and then start a new email so that the same personal data is not repeated in the email chain.
Before using “reply all”, check that it is appropriate that everyone in the circulation list should actually receive the e-mail you are about to send.
It may be worth setting out special precautions to be taken when information is in particularly risky situations, such as being worked from home, from personal mobile phones etc.
Common situations which may be worth mentioning include whether staff contact details may be given over the phone This principal may be relaxed in the case of information which poses a low risk: for example, a list of business contacts may be made generally available, even if this means people having access who don’t strictly need it.
When access to data or sensitive data is required between Company’s personnel department a request must be send to DPO of the Company. In that case there will always be cases where the organisation feels it is right to break confidentiality, and the DPO will decide on a case-by-case basis whether this is appropriate.
