measures* to ensure and be able to *demonstrate* that the handling of
personal data is performed in accordance with relevant law, an idea
codified in the EU General Data Protection Regulation and other
frameworks, including APEC's Cross Border Privacy Rules. Traditionally
has been a *fair information practices principle*, that due diligence and
reasonable steps will be undertaken to ensure that personal information
will be protected and handled consistently with relevant law and other
fair use principles.
2. Accuracy
ANS Organizations must take every *reasonable* step to ensure the
data processed is this and, where *necessary*, kept up to date.
Reasonable measures should be understood as implementing processes
to prevent inaccuracies during the data collection process as well as
during the ongoing data processing in relation to the specific use for
which the data is processed. The organization must consider the type of
data and the specific purposes to maintain the accuracy of personal
,data in relation to the purpose. Also embodies the responsibility to
respond to data subject requests to correct records that contain
incomplete information or misinformation.
3. Adequate Level of Protection
ANS A transfer of personal data from the European Union to a third
country or an international organisation may take place where the
European Commission has decided that the third country, a territory or
one or
more specified sectors within that third country, or the international
organisation in question, ensures this by taking into account the
*following elements*
*(a)* the rule of law, respect for *human rights* and fundamental
freedoms, both *general and sectoral legislation*, data protection rules,
professional rules and security measures, effective and *enforceable
data subject rights* and *effective administrative and judi- cial redress*
for the data subjects whose personal data is being transferred; *(b)* the
existence and *effective* functioning of independent *supervisory
authorities* with responsibility for ensuring and enforcing compliance
with the data protection rules;
,(c) the *international commitments* the third country or international
organisation concerned has entered into in relation *to the protection of
personal data*.
4. Annual Reports
ANS The requirement under the GDPR that the European Data Pro-
tection Board and each supervisory authority *periodically report on
their activities*. The supervisory authority report should include
infringements and the activities that the authority conducted under
their Article 58(2) powers. The EDPB report should include *guidelines,
recommendations, best practices and binding decisions*. Ad- ditionally,
the report should include the protection of natural persons with regard
to processing in the EU and, where relevant, in third countries and
international organisations. Shall be *made public and be transmitted to
the European Parliament, to the Council and to the Commission*.
, 5. Anonymous Information
ANS In contrast to personal data, this is not related to an identified or
an identifiable natural person and *cannot be combined with other
information to re-identify individuals*. It has been rendered
unidentifiable and, as such, is not protected by the GDPR.
6. Anti-discrimination Laws
ANS *indications of special classes* of personal *data*. If there exists
law protecting against discrimination based on a class or status, it is
likely personal information relating to that class or status is *subject to
more stringent* data protection regulation, under the GDPR or
otherwise.
7. Appropriate Safeguards
ANS The GDPR refers to these in a number of contexts,
*including* the *transfer* of personal data *to third countries* outside
the European Union, the processing of *special categories* of data,
*and* the processing of personal data in a *law enforcement* context.
