In a society where corporate risks are spreading across all areas of business, it is essential for companies and their governing bodies to prevent and detect potential risks that could lead to legal liability for the legal entity.
Corporate Compliance is a set of procedures and best practices adopted by companies after identifying and classifying the legal risks they face, both cross-cutting and sector-specific, to establish internal mechanisms for detecting, preventing, managing, minimizing, and controlling these risks, ensuring compliance with all regulations affecting the company.
The study, design and implementation of a Corporate Compliance program includes:
- risk assessment
- Design of control measures and evidence
- Drafting policies, protocols and procedures
- Good corporate governance
- Promote a culture of compliance
- Training for affected groups
- Supervision and control services as Compliance Officer
- Implementation of a reporting channel
- Audits.
Data Protection
All companies, entities, and professionals, regardless of their area of activity, must ensure the correct handling and safekeeping of all personal data they may manage by implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures, including:
- Implementation of security measures
- Development of privacy policies
- Risk analysis
- Impact assessments
- Security audits
- Internal training
- Data Protection Officer
- Management of sanctioning procedures.
And all of this, to offer and maintain the maximum guarantees of security, confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal data and confidential information.
