In January 2017, the Spanish DPA published new materials and resources designed to facilitate SMEs' adaptation to the new GDPR. Specifically, the DPA issued the Guide for Controllers to the Regulation, the Guide for Contracts between Controllers and Processors, and the Guide for Fulfilling the Duty to Inform (source documents in Spanish). These materials, built from the articles and opinions of the Article 29 Working Party, provide practical advice on the GDPR's scope and on how to ensure company compliance with the regulation.

The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
