Compliance Areas

Accountability

When we act as a data processor we must maintain records of all categories of data processing including:

  • the name and contact details of the processor or processors and
  • of each controller on behalf of which the processor is acting, and,
  • where applicable, of the controller’s or the processor’s representative,
  • and the data protection officer;
  • the categories of processing carried out on behalf of each controller;
  • where applicable, transfers of personal data to a third country or an international organisation, including the identification of that third country or international organisation and, in the case of Extra-territorial transfers, the documentation of suitable safeguards;
  • where possible, a general description of the technical and organisational security measures.

When we act as a data controller this requires us to have records of our processing activities, to have adopted and published suitable policies, to have allocated responsibilities for data protection to suitable job holders and to have ensured our staff have been trained in data protection basics.

It also requires us to ensure that those who process personal data for us have the relevant data protection clauses in the relevant supply contracts.

When we have completed the process a tool to assess our compliance with the duty of accountability is linked >>here<<

Transparency

This requires us to provide all categories of data subjects for whom we process personal data with information about our processing activities.

When we obtain personal data from the data subject, we must provide this information when we collect the data. When we obtain it from a third party we must provide this information within 1 month.

We will comply with the duty of transparency by publishing suitable privacy notices

This can be done via a website (i.e. a ‘data privacy page’ or similar) and providing a link to this page whenever we collect personal data.

Alternatively we can issue the privacy notice to the data subjects in electronic or hard copy.

Subject Rights

The Constellium Group entity that is the data controller is required to respond to data subjects’ request in relation to their rights within 30 days (in the majority of cases).

These are the right to: (i) access, (ii) be informed of processing activities, (iii) rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data, (iv) erasure, (v) restriction of processing, (vi) portability and (vii) object to processing.

We will comply with this by following the Constellium Group Data Subject Rights Processes and by completing and maintaining records of the forms that are required as part of that process.

We will ensure our staff are adequately trained.

Security

This requires us to adopt suitable security measures to avoid or minimise the risk of a data breach. The extent to which we are obligated to deploy security will depend on the level of risk of a breach and to data subjects’ rights are freedoms in the case of a data breach, and also the sensitivity of the data we process.

We will comply with this by following the Constellium Group guidance and processes regarding data security and data breaches.

We will undertake a data protection impact assessments if the risk associated with processing is high.

We will ensure our staff are adequately trained.


Records of Processing Activities

The most recent version of the records of processing activities is linked >>here<< as a ms excel download.

The entires that relate to CUK were based on the survey documented linked >>here<<

We must keep this under review; provide any important missing information and indicate if a new processing activity should be added.


Data Protection Policy

As part of our duty of accountability we explain our approach to all aspects of compliance in a single policy document.

This is an outward facing document that will be available to those external to the business. This document is available >>here<<


Data Subject Rights – Employees

Our approach to fulfilling employee data subject’s rights requests is set out in the Employee Data Subject Rights Process which can be accessed >>here<<

This process requires forms to be completed by the employee (available to download >>here<), the person who receives the request (available to download >>here<<) and the Data Privacy Officer (available >>here<<).

Data Subject Rights – Others

[Is there a process for external data subject requests?]

Data Security

Constellium Group’s data security guidance is available >>here<<


Data Breach

When we act as data processor we are must investigate data breaches or ‘near misses’ quickly and report data breaches to the relevant Constellium Group company that acts as data controller (as per the Interaffiliate Data Processing and Transfer Agreement, see below).

When we act as a data controller we, like the relevant Constellium Group companies above, are under very stringent reporting requirements when we became aware of a data breach or ‘near miss’.

When we act as a data controller we have only 72 hours to investigate and notify the regulatory authority in the UK (the Information Commissioner’s Office, or ‘ICO’).

In more serious cases we may also have to notify the data subjects who are affected.

Constellium Group procedures ensure we fulfil our duties within the requisite timescale. The Data Breach Incident process is available >>here<<

This process requires forms to be completed by the person who detects the breach (available >>here<), and the ‘Incident Manager’ (available >>here<<).

It includes a link to a list of regulatory authorities in the EU (>>here<<)

It includes a Group internal contact list (available >>here<< as a pdf and >>here<< as a ms excel download). [update list with CUK contact/s and update]


Retention

Data protection compliance under the GDPR means complying with the principle of data minimisation; we will do this in two ways.

By keeping our records of processing activities under careful review we will be able to identify personal data categories that we no longer need, or can justify processing.

We must also set and abide by suitable retention periods for the personal data we process.

Our approach to retention periods is contained within the records of processing activities (see column P in 2019.06.28 Constellium Processing-activities linked above).

For employees it is six years from termination of employment.

[If we process data for any other categories of data subject the records of processing activities must be amended]


Processor Compliance

Wherever we share personal data with a contractor, supplier or other business partner we must ensure that GDPR article 28 terms are either incorporated into the terms of business, or that they have been agreed separately.

A form that can be used to verify that a processor’s terms include the these is available >>here<<

If a processor’s terms do not include the article 28 terms …

… we will ensure that the addendum to contract terms linked >>here<< are signed off or incorporated into the main contract.

If the processor is contracting on our terms of business we will ensure these incorporate the article 28 terms.

We can also demonstrate that processing undertaken on our behalf is lawful by recording external processors in the audit (IAR) and noting where we are satisfied that the article 28 terms are incorporated into the relevant terms of business.

An unsigned copy of this agreement can be viewed >>here<<

[Is there a final executed version?]

Transfers to Third Countries

Personal data may be shared between Constellium Group entities based in EU member states and those external to the EU. These transfers are subject to Interaffiliate Data Processing and Transfer Agreement, see above, which incorporates the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

[Are there any transfers from CUK to 3rd party and other sub-processors outside the EU]

Privacy Notices

We have a privacy notice for data subjects who are our employees.

This short form version of this document is linked >>here<<

I have undertaken a compliance review of the short form version of document >>here<<; please note my comments. We may need to amend the privacy notice for full compliance.

There is also a longer form version linked >>here<<

I will undertake a compliance review of the long form version of document >>here<<.

We should add privacy notices for any other categories of data subject whose personal data we process:

  • Agency workers
  • Applicants for employment (for whom data processing will be different from those who are ultimately employed)
  • Customers
  • Suppliers and contractors

[privacy notice will ideally carry contact details for CUK GDPR Local Contact ‘dataprotection.uk@constellium.com’]

We need to ensure we provide a link to the relevant privacy notice/s wherever we collect personal data and to back fill this where data subjects have not yet been given this information.

We can also use a link to this wording in place of long and inconvenient text when we collect personal data.

If this is viable, the text for this can be something along these lines:

‘Please refer to the Constellium Data Privacy webpage for details of our processing of your personal data and your rights as a data subject – www.constellium.com/data-protection-policy
