Are you processing special category data without knowing it?

In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk DP, Martin Brazier, Senior Consultant at URM, explains the General Data Protection Regulation’s (GDPR’s) requirements around special category personal data, and how organisations can ensure they are not processing it unknowingly or unnecessarily.  Martin leverages his 20+ years of experience in information management and data protection compliance to discuss:  

  • What the GDPR defines as ‘special category data’ and the extra protections it affords to this type of personal data
  • The Information Commissioner’s Office’s (ICO’s) guidance on inferring special category data
  • Real-world Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) judgements that relate to the inferring or inadvertent collection of special category data, and what can be learned from these judgements
  • How you may be processing special category data unknowingly, and the steps you can take to avoid noncompliance.
