s.24(2)-(3) — Technical and organisational measures, accountability and privacy by design
Requirement
Controllers and processors shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to give effect to the processing principles and shall demonstrate accountability, owing a duty of care to data subjects (s.24(2)–(3)). The NDPC's General Application and Implementation Directive (GAID) 2025 requires software that processes personal data to be designed with privacy by design and by default (Art. 31).
What the engine looks for
Every group below must be satisfied — by an affirmative statement, not a plan, a hedge or a denial — for the control to count as covered. A term ending in … matches any word it begins. Supporting terms do not change the verdict — they raise confidence and distinguish a policy that names a mechanism from one that gestures at a category.
