GDPR Data Handling

Practical implementation guide for GDPR-compliant data processing, consent management, and privacy controls.

When to Use This Skill

  • Building systems that process EU personal data
  • Implementing consent management
  • Handling data subject requests (DSRs)
  • Conducting GDPR compliance reviews
  • Designing privacy-first architectures
  • Creating data processing agreements

Core Concepts

1. Personal Data Categories

2. Legal Bases for Processing

Article 6 - Lawful Bases:
├── Consent: Freely given, specific, informed
├── Contract: Necessary for contract performance
├── Legal Obligation: Required by law
├── Vital Interests: Protecting someone's life
├── Public Interest: Official functions
└── Legitimate Interest: Balanced against rights

3. Data Subject Rights

Right to Access (Art. 15)      ─┐
Right to Rectification (Art. 16) │
Right to Erasure (Art. 17)       │ Must respond
Right to Restrict (Art. 18)      │ within 1 month
Right to Portability (Art. 20)   │
Right to Object (Art. 21)       ─┘

Best Practices

Do's

  • Minimize data collection - Only collect what's needed
  • Document everything - Processing activities, legal bases
  • Encrypt PII - At rest and in transit
  • Implement access controls - Need-to-know basis
  • Regular audits - Verify compliance continuously

Don'ts

  • Don't pre-check consent boxes - Must be opt-in
  • Don't bundle consent - Separate purposes separately
  • Don't retain indefinitely - Define and enforce retention
  • Don't ignore DSARs - 30-day response required
  • Don't transfer without safeguards - SCCs or adequacy decisions

  • Aavoid-ai-writingAudit and rewrite prose so it stops reading as machine-generated. Use this skill when asked to remove AI-isms, clean up AI writing, edit a draft for AI tells, audit a README, changelog, release note, PR description, or blog post for machine-sounding prose, or make text sound less like AI. Supports a detect-only mode, a rewrite mode, and an edit-in-place mode, with optional voice and context profiles.
  • Abacktesting-frameworksBuild robust backtesting systems for trading strategies with proper handling of look-ahead bias, survivorship bias, and transaction costs. Use when developing trading algorithms, validating strategies, or building backtesting infrastructure.
  • Abazel-build-optimizationOptimize Bazel builds for large-scale monorepos. Use when configuring Bazel, implementing remote execution, or optimizing build performance for enterprise codebases.
  • Abefore-you-buildPre-build product and feature risk review for founders, product managers, and AI-assisted builders. Use this skill when the user is about to build a landing page, MVP, SaaS product, internal tool, agent workflow, or major feature and needs to check demand, positioning, monetization, retention, trust, distribution, and adoption risk before implementation starts.
