If a company collects, transmits, hosts or analyzes personal data of EU citizens, GDPR requires the company to use third-party data processors who guarantee their ability to implement the technical and organizational requirements of the GDPR.
ManageMyVessel will provide our customers that request MMV compliance as a processor with contractual commitments regarding our compliance with applicable EU data protection law and will implement additional contractual provisions required by the GDPR.
Our contractual commitments guarantee that customers can:
-
Respond to requests from data subjects to correct, amend or delete personal data.
-
Be made aware of and report personal data breaches to relevant supervisory authorities and data subjects in accordance with GDPR timeframes.
-
Demonstrate their compliance with the GDPR as pertaining to ManageMyVessel Services
ManageMyVessel GDPR Product Readiness
While much of our preparation is happening behind the scenes, we are also working on a number of initiatives that will be visible to our users. We are, among other things:
-
Updating our Data Processing Agreement to meet the requirements of the GDPR in order to permit you to continue to lawfully transfer EU personal data to ManageMyVessel and permit ManageMyVessel to continue to lawfully receive and process that data;
-
Analyzing all of our current features and templates to determine what improvements or additions can be made to make them more efficient for those users subject to the GDPR;
-
Evaluating potential new GDPR-friendly features and templates to add to our application
