Our 3PL Solutions Meet Data Protection Standards

Data Protection Is Becoming a Business Priority

Due to the digitization of logistics processes, there is more sensitive data than ever that needs to be processed by logistics organizations. Customer information, shipment information, financial data and other operational information should be transferred daily across various systems and partners.

Having understood the importance of responsible processing of the data, Boltrics has made a big step forward in gaining the Data Pro Certificate and becoming proof of its dedication to European standards of data protection.

It shows the importance of logistics companies collaborating with technology suppliers that give priority to data protection at all levels.

Data Pro Certificate is Awarded to Boltrics

Boltrics has successfully achieved the Data Pro Certificate and the Data Pro Verified Label through the independent review process conducted by SCOPE Europe. This certificate proves that Boltrics conforms to the criteria and guidelines set out in the Data Pro Code.

This certification adds assurance for Boltrics’ customers about the fact that data processes are carried out in line with the European standards on data privacy and protection.

This certificate clearly shows that Boltrics continues to be committed to transparency and responsible handling of personal data.

Data Pro Code Understanding

The Data Pro Code is an approved by the GDPR code of conduct aimed at the organizations dealing with processing of personal data of their customers.

In contrast to other security frameworks, Data Pro Code concentrates on the duties of data processors and defines clear rules regarding the handling of personal data, its protection and processing.

With the help of this framework, organizations will be able to prove that they:

  • Process personal data responsibly;
  • Act in accordance with GDPR principles;
  • Apply proper security measures;
  • Conduct business activities transparently and accountably;
  • Constantly improve data protection practices.

It becomes more and more relevant for the companies working in the European market.

Why It Is Important to Verify Independently

Compliance on its own is one step; being able to prove this compliance independently is another.

SCOPE Europe, which is an independent assessor organization, assesses organizations according to the standard set out by the Data Pro Code. During this process, the organization must demonstrate how it meets the necessary criteria.

It gives the customers or other stakeholders confidence that the claim made about compliance is based on an official assessment process and not only on a claim.

This can be of great importance for companies providing logistics services and processing customer data.

Security and Beyond: The Distinction Between Data Protection and Information Security

Most companies know about certifications like ISO 27001 and ISO 27701. Although these standards have their use in information security and privacy management, the Data Pro Code is designed specifically for GDPR compliance.

While information security standards concern the protection of data from threats, including breach and cyber attacks, the Data Pro Code goes beyond to emphasize the responsibilities of data processors, which include:

• Data processing transparency
• Privacy management
• Responsibilities of data processors under GDPR
• Accountability
• Individual rights protection

It is particularly important for those businesses which process customer data while providing their services.

Some Key Data Protection Practices Applied at Boltrics

Effective compliance starts with effective operations. There are a number of key data protection practices applied at Boltrics.

They are as follows:

Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default

Privacy is taken into account during the design of the solutions and processes, rather than being added after. In other words, it becomes an integral part of solution development and implementation.

Data Encryption

Encryption of the sensitive data is used both when storing and transmitting the data to minimize the risks of unauthorized access.

Secure Access Credentials, Authentication and System Integrations Management

The access credentials, authentication information and systems integration are conducted according to the practices which are used to protect sensitive business data.

Responsible Data Processing

There are specific processes used by Boltrics to make sure that the data processing is done for valid purposes only.

European Data Hosting

In case of need, the data processing of the customers is done on the territory of the European Economic Area.

All of the above mentioned contribute to the creation of a secure environment for logistics companies working with sensitive data.

Implications for Logistics Service Providers

In the case of logistics firms, protection of data is no longer limited to IT. It has become a necessary aspect of their business, relations with customers and compliance with regulations.

The benefits of using solutions which meet data protection criteria include:

  • Increased certainty about data processing
  • Lower compliance risks
  • Increased client trust
  • More transparency
  • Better governance within business processes
  • Higher readiness for the ever-evolving privacy regulations

Given growing customer demands and increasing regulations, businesses require technologies which will enable efficient operations and proper data management.
