GDPR Compliant Contract Management with Microsoft 365

Comply easily, no stress. Dock 365, developed on Microsoft 365, ensures that contracts are managed securely and GDPR-compliant without holding your teams back.

Why GDPR is Important in Contract Management

Why GDPR is Important in Contract Management

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) isn't reserved for data protection officers; it applies to each team that processes customer or employee data. Legal, IT, sales, finance, and compliance teams need to reexamine how they process contracts that include personally identifiable information (PII). Fines can be levied up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover.

It is easy to overlook contracts in GDPR compliance, but they hold sensitive information that needs to be protected, monitored, and managed. This is where a GDPR-compliant contract management solution comes into play.

When considering any contract management application, ask:

⛨ Are data stores capable of being located in GDPR-approved geographies?

⛨ Does it connect to secure cloud services such as Microsoft 365?

⛨ Are logs, encryption, and retention controls adjustable?

⛨ Is access based on roles available?

Dock 365 meets all the requirements and offers contract-specific smarts on top.

Earn Trust Through GDPR

Customers want to feel confident their data is secure. When your business complies with GDPR, you're demonstrating customers that their personal data are respected and treated with care.

It's not merely checking a box, it's creating trust in how you conduct business. Customers are more inclined to engage with businesses they feel trust, particularly when it comes to sensitive information.

GDPR compliance aids you in breaching security checks quicker, lowering objections at the time of sales, and presenting your business as one concerned with responsibility and accountability.
