Inventory of processing activities

Do you have generic lists with 1) the most used processing activities (i.e. for the processing inventory) and 2) general documents for the retention schedule? I had hoped these two documents in particular came pre-populated so that they would be easy to adapt by deleting non-relevant and adding company specific.

Answer:

Inventory of processing activities need to be filled in by the companies themselves, there are no “most used processing activities” since these are closely linked to the business. For example a call center processing activities will be different than the ones form a recruitment company. This is why we provided in the EU GDPR toolkit https://advisera.com/eugdpracademy/eu-gdpr-documentation-toolkit/ the ”Guidelines of Processing Activities Inventory” that will explain how you could tackle this task.

As for the Retention Schedule it is somehow the same story especially for certain types of records for which retent ion period is established by local legal requirements for example the retention period for CCTV footage is different between various Member States the same goes for payroll related documents as well.
