GDPR Compliance with Document Scanning
One of the changes to GDPR and the new Data Protection Act 2018 is being able to respond to Subject Access Requests (SAR’s) in a timely and cost effective way.
This requires you to know where your data is held and know exactly how many copies of the document exist.
Individuals will also have the right to be forgotten which means data controllers must be able to locate all information relating to that individual and securely destroy it.
Transferring documents to digital files will improve GDPR compliance through;
- Security – encrypted files and password protected USB’s/CDs reduces the risk of files being stolen or lost.
- Access – OCR searchable files means companies can respond to SAR’s quicker than with a few taps of a keyboard.
- Cost – reduced cost of physical storage means funds could be spent on improving other areas of the organisation to be GDPR compliant or improving productivity. Clearing archive rooms of boxes and files could help move you towards a paperless office environment.
