The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in force since May 2018, establishes a strict legal framework that requires companies to take proactive measures to ensure the privacy and security of the personal data they handle. In 2025, these obligations remain essential to avoid sanctions and maintain the trust of clients, employees, and partners. ✍️ What does the GDPR imply for business contracts? Any contract involving the processing of personal data must include specific clauses regulating such processing in accordance with the GDPR. This includes contracts with clients, suppliers, employees, and especially those involving data processing assignments. Companies must ensure that these contracts: • Specify the purpose of the processing. • Detail the categories of data processed. • Establish the applicable security measures. • Regulate access, storage, and deletion of the data. • Include confidentiality and secrecy clauses. Main corporate obligations under the GDPR 1. Proactive responsibility Companies must demonstrate GDPR compliance, not just claim it. This means documenting all actions related to data protection, from impact assessments to records of processing activities. 2. Data protection by design and by default Before implementing any system or process involving personal data processing, a risk assessment must be conducted. Protective measures must be integrated from the beginning of the project. 3. Explicit consent The processing of personal data must be based on free, informed, specific, and unambiguous consent. This consent must be demonstrable in writing and revocable at any time. 4. Records of processing activities Companies must keep an up-to-date record of all data processing activities, including data controllers, purposes, recipients, and applied security measures. 5. Impact assessments When processing may pose a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, it is mandatory to conduct a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA). 6. Data Protection Officer (DPO) In certain cases, such as large-scale processing or processing of sensitive data, it is mandatory to appoint a DPO to oversee GDPR compliance within the organization. 7. Security breach notifications Companies must have protocols to detect, manage, and notify security breaches within a maximum of 72 hours from detection. 8. Attention to data subject rights Companies must facilitate the exercise of rights such as access, rectification, erasure, objection, data portability, and restriction of processing. Moreover, they must respond within a maximum period of one month. 9. Data processing contracts When a company hires a third party to process personal data on its behalf, a contract must be formalized to govern this relationship in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR. This contract must include clear processing instructions, security measures, and subcontracting conditions. Consequences of non-compliance The GDPR includes significant financial penalties, which may reach up to 20 million euros or 4% of the company´s global annual turnover, whichever is greater. Additionally, reputational damage may be irreversible, affecting the trust of clients and business partners. Compliance recommendations • Conduct periodic data protection audits. • Train staff in privacy matters. • Review and update contracts involving data processing. • Implement clear internal data management policies. • Seek specialized legal advice in data protection. ✨ ⚖️ Welcome to the Civil Online Procedure offered by MCHM Lawyers.
