Assesses and improves how personal data is collected, used, shared, and retained — data mapping, lawful basis, consent, processor agreements, subject rights, and breach obligations. Use this before launching anything that handles personal data, when adding a vendor that will process it, when a data subject request arrives, when assessing exposure under GDPR or US state privacy laws, or when preparing for a privacy review.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Privacy and data protection > Not legal advice. Regimes differ by jurisdiction and change; material questions need qualified > counsel. This structures the assessment and identifies what to escalate. ## Start from the data map You cannot assess what you have not inventoried. For each category of personal data: - What is collected, from whom, and where it came from. - Why — the specific purpose, and the lawful basis where one is required. - Where it lives, who can reach it, and which vendors receive it. - How long it is kept, and what deletes it. "Indefinitely" is a finding, not an answer. - Whether it crosses a border, and under what mechanism. Most privacy failures are inventory failures: data nobody remembered was being collected, in a system nobody owned. ## Design decisions that prevent problems - **Collect less.** Every field is a liability with a maintenance cost. The cheapest way to protect data is not to hold it. - **Purpose limitation is real.** Data collected for one purpose is not automatically available for another — particularly for training models, which is where this most often goes wrong now. …

How to install
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/privacy-and-data-protection@sha256:265791351918efdaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.0e7cd01, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
