/cs:gdpr-audit-prep — GDPR DPO Forcing Questions
Command: /cs:gdpr-audit-prep <scope>
The GDPR DPO auditor pressure-tests any privacy compliance work. Six Article-cited questions before any internal audit, breach response, DPA investigation, or acquisition due diligence.
When to Run
- Before annual internal GDPR audit
- Before quarterly Article 30 RoPA refresh
- Before launching new high-risk processing (Article 35 DPIA required)
- Post-breach (Articles 33-34)
- Before DPA investigation response or supervisory authority engagement
- During acquisition due diligence (target company privacy posture)
- Quarterly during high-volume new-feature shipping
The Six DPO Questions
1. Show me the Article 30 RoPA — with last-updated date.
Most-cited finding area.
- Must include all Article 30(1)(a)-(g) elements for controllers
- Must include all Article 30(2)(a)-(d) elements for processors
- Updated within reasonable time of changes (90 days expected)
- Joint controller arrangements documented per Article 26
2. For this processing activity, what's the lawful basis under Article 6?
Article 6 is exclusive — pick ONE basis per purpose.
- Six options: consent / contract / legal obligation / vital interests / public task / legitimate interests
- Where "legitimate interests": LIA documented
- Where "consent": records per Article 7; withdrawal mechanism
- Special categories (Article 9) require an Article 9(2) exception
3. For high-risk processing, where's the DPIA per Article 35?
Required for high-risk; sample 3-5 activities.
- Article 35(7)(a)-(d) required elements:
- Systematic description of processing
- Necessity + proportionality assessment
- Risks to rights + freedoms
- Measures to address risks
- DPO consulted per Article 35(2)
- Article 36 prior consultation triggered for residual high risk
- For AI systems: integrates with EU AI Act Article 27 FRIA (cross-check with cs-ai-act-compliance)
4. Show me a DSAR from the last 30 days — and the response timing.
Articles 15-22 operational workflow.
- Response within 1 month (Article 12(3)); extension up to 2 months for complex requests
- Identity verification process documented
- Right of access response includes all Article 15 information
- Right to erasure (Article 17) workflow covers backups + processors
5. Show me Transfer Impact Assessments for the largest non-EU transfers.
Schrems II discipline.
- Adequacy decision OR SCCs (Article 46) OR derogation (Article 49)
- TIA per EDPB Recommendations 01/2020 + 02/2020
- Supplementary measures where TIA flagged risk
- US transfers covered by EU-US Data Privacy Framework adequacy (Jul 2023) — verify list of certified entities
6. Show me the breach log per Article 33(5) — all breaches, not just notifiable ones.
Article 33(5) requires logging ALL breaches.
- Internal breach detection mechanism documented
- Article 33 DPA notification within 72 hours (where required)
- Article 34 data subject notification (where high risk)
- Root cause + corrective action via CAPA system
- Cross-check with cs-ciso-iso27001 for A.5.24-27 incident management alignment
