Templates

Summary

This is a resource page from the Guernsey ODPA listing templates and self-assessment tools that organisations can use to support their data protection compliance programmes. It does not itself impose new legal duties but points users toward practical starting points, noting that compliance should be adapted to each organisation and is not a tick-box exercise.

• Getting started: A step-by-step guide to obligations and a data audit template for organisations new to data protection compliance.
• Controller templates: Controller questionnaires (electronic and handwritten) and a controller self assessment guidance document, to support record-keeping duties for processing activities.
• Processor templates: Processor questionnaires (electronic and handwritten) and a processor self assessment guidance document, to support duties owed to contracted controllers.
• DPIA templates: Screening questions and a full Data Protection Impact Assessment template, plus guidance on linking a DPIA to the data protection principles.

The page frames these as optional support tools within a wider governance programme rather than mandatory forms, though it notes DPIAs can be a legal requirement in some circumstances.
