THE CHALLENGE
The development team was already working on the project when I was asked to analyse the app’s workflow and make sure that the tool is compliant with the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
MY APPROACH
I started by studying the user journey and understanding at what point of the process personal data was recorded.
Drinkaware’s alcohol unit and calories calculator collects information about the individual’s age, gender and alcohol intake. Only if the user agrees to participate in an email campaign and submits their email, the data sets become personal and sensitive.
The result of my analysis lead to improvements in the way user consent is obtained.
WORKFLOW
Highlight the flow of personal data and make sure that is well understood by stakeholders
IMPROVED PRIVACY STATEMENTS
Users need to understand how their personal data will be processed.
THE OUTCOMES
NEW DRINKAWARE CALCULATOR
My team has deployed the new DrinkCompare calculator.
