GDPR and its solution in Django

Abstract

The General Data Protection Regulation applies to the personal data and the parties concerned. It has become applicable in the force on 25 May 2018. Every party processing the personal data is under impact of the GDPR. The document is divided into two parts – theoretical and practical. First part consists of four chapters. The first chapter of the document is an introductory point. The second chapter ex-plains the eight principles of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development as answer to privacy regulations. The third part – what has been brought with Directive 95 and why it has been repealed. The fourth part contains the main aspects of the GDPR, the bullet points. The practical part of the document – is an application developed for the specific business need, the implementation also considers all the rights of the data subject introduced with GDPR and ensures the established principles of data processing. The application consists of two parts. The first part is built upon Django Web Framework, the second part is on Rest Framework. The Rest application rather represents the data flow between other similar Django Web applications and how to achieve the right of data portability. The goal was to analyse the GDPR, to build the IT solution that meets the requirements of the GDPR. The goals were achieved successfully.
