European Data Protection Board’s Post

Check your website to see if it is GDPR and privacy compliant with a free assessment tool

The European Data Protection Board has launched a website auditing tool that can be used to help analyse whether websites are compliant with the law. The tool was developed in the context of the EDPB Support Pool of Experts (SPE) and can be used by both legal and technical auditors at data protection authorities (DPAs), as well as by controllers and processors who wish to test their own websites. The tool is a Free and Open Source Software under the EUPL 1.2 Licence and is available for download on code.europa.eu. The new tool allows preparing, carrying out and evaluating audits directly in the tool by a simple visit to the website in question. The tool is also compatible with other tools, such as the EDPS website evidence collector, and allows auditors to import and evaluate the results of audits carried out on those tools. Finally, the tool can generate reports. While several website auditing tools already exist, these usually require technical expertise. Therefore, the EDPB decided to develop a solution that would be easy to use in order to facilitate enforcement by national DPAs and compliance checks by controllers. https://lnkd.in/dCxSPmD9 #GDPR #eprivacy #cookies #gdprcompliance

The European Data Protection Board (#EDPB) released a website auditing tool for EU #GDPR compliance. The #auditingtool was developed by their Support Pool of Experts and can be used by #dataprotectionauthorities, in addition to #datacontrollers and #dataprocessors companies, to streamline the "preparing, carrying out and evaluating" of #audits. Link for download of the #Free and #opensourcesoftware under the EUPL 1.2 Licence and its source code can be found on the below PRESS link https://lnkd.in/ehJWA4Fw

The EDPB has launched a free website auditing tool for controllers and processors to assess GDPR compliance. The tool enables you to import and evaluate the audit results and generate reports. In the words of the EDPB, it "decided to develop a solution that would be easy to use in order to facilitate enforcement by national DPAs" (in addition to controllers). It'll be interesting to see if this leads to website sweeps coming down the tracks. https://lnkd.in/eMss6FTA

Congratulations to the European Data Protection Board on the website auditing tool, which can facilitate controls on compliance with the #GDPR. After compiling it on my Mac, I am testing it. As I said some time ago, DPAs can make automated controls - even massive - by only using information technologies, such as - for instance - checking websites on the Internet. #GDPR #computerscience #informationtechnologies #dataprotection #EDPB
