WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT STAGES YOUR DATA MAY GO THROUGH?



When you are approached by someone who wants any personal information about you, your Data privacy and protection journey begins; First you are entitled to choose whether to share or keep your personal data. After giving this permission to someone, you are at the first stage of your journey.


A. COLLECTION.

This happens when someone asks and receives personal information about you. For example, if a person who is collecting information about salaries of people in your village comes to you and ask for where you work and how much you earn, then you give this information out, then that person will have collected your personal data. This is the first stage, and this person is called a Data collector.  


Storage (who keeps this - controller)

B. DATA CONTROLLER

Once you have given your data to someone, that person decides what, and how to handle and deal with your data. This includes decisions such as how long to keep it, what to do with it, and how to handle it for the purpose they gave you. This person who does this is called a Data Controller. For example, when a doctor asks for blood samples and information about your family health history, it is because they have a purpose in mind. The doctor then decides how they want to use this information and your samples to get to that result. This makes the doctor a data controller.  Once you’ve given your data to an organization or individual, they decide how to handle and deal with your data.


C. PROCESSING

Sometimes the person who collects your personal data is not the same person who analyses it or organizes it. For example, if a company may send interns to collect personal information about people so that it can start selling in that area. When it gets this information, it gives it to another company to put it together and keep it for them. This process is what we call processing. This company or person receives that information for one of the reasons we have talked about and is called a Data Processor.
