This control addresses Final Provisions. > > — GDPR, Article Article 94 ### In plain English Repeals Directive 95/46/EC (Data Protection Directive). In practice, this means you can prove you data directive 95/46/ec-level controls on a defined cadence. ## Why it matters GDPR administrative fines reach the greater of €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover. The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) coordinates supervisory-authority enforcement across the EU/EEA, and DPAs publish enforcement decisions citing specific Articles. ## What an auditor looks for A DPA or privacy auditor expects: a Records of Processing Activities (RoPA) entry, a documented lawful basis, evidence the Article's data-subject right is operationalised end-to-end, a named DPO contact (where required), and Article 30 records that match what the front-end actually does. Within **Chapter XI: Final Provisions**, the assessor will trace your implementation back to the catalogue reference (Article Article 94) and look for objective evidence on the latest two assessment cycles. ## How to implement #### Policy Management **Docs.** Keep each policy in version-controlled Markdown alongside the code that implements it; ship a signed PDF snapshot at each annual review and link the SHA into the SoA. ### Operational checklist - **Data.** Document the trigger, the owner and the cadence. - **Repeal.** Document the trigger, the owner and the cadence. - **Scope:** directive 95/46/ec. ## Evidence to collect - **Policy Document.** A signed and version-controlled policy / standard / procedure document. - **Infra Scan.** Continuous infrastructure-posture telemetry — AWS Config, Azure Policy compliance, GCP Organisation Policy, Wiz / Prisma findings. Signed policy or standard documents the safeguard. Focus: Repeal of Directive 95/46/EC. ## Common pitfalls - Policies that no engineer has read; the version in Confluence drifts from the version that's actually being enforced. ## How it maps to other frameworks Computed from shared tags, control component and key-operation subjects — handy when you are reconciling controls across an audit. - [**CIS Controls v8 2.6** — Allowlist Authorized Libraries](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/cis-controls-v8/2-6-allowlist-authorized-libraries) - [**ISO/IEC 27001:2022 A.5.5** — Contact with authorities](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/iso-27001-2022/a-5-5-contact-with-authorities) - [**SOC 2 (2017 TSC) CC2.3** — External Communication on Internal Control Matters](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/soc-2-trust-services-criteria/cc2-3-external-communication-on-internal-control-matters) - [**ISO/IEC 27701:2025 A.3.15** — Independent review](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/iso-27701-2025/a-3-15-independent-review) - [**ISO/IEC 42001:2023 A.2.2** — Policies for the responsible development or use of AI systems](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/iso-42001-2023/a-2-2-policies-for-the-responsible-development-or-use-of-ai-systems) ## Related controls in GDPR - [**Article Article 95** — Relationship with Directive 2002/58/EC](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-95-relationship-with-directive-2002-58-ec) - [**Article Article 98** — Review of other Union legal acts on data protection](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-98-review-of-other-union-legal-acts-on-data-protection) - [**Article Article 99** — Entry into force and application](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-99-entry-into-force-and-application) - [**Article Article 83** — General conditions for imposing administrative fines](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-83-general-conditions-for-imposing-administrative-fines) - [**Article Article 96** — Relationship with previously concluded Agreements](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-96-relationship-with-previously-concluded-agreements) - [**Article Article 2** — Material Scope](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr/article-2-material-scope) ## References - [European Union — GDPR](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj) - Catalogue identifier: `Article Article 94` Topics: governance riskpolicy management ## Related compliance guidance - [GDPR compliance: a practical implementation guide for cloud-native SaaS teams](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/gdpr): Start with the full GDPR implementation guide — scope, roadmap, evidence and how the assessment runs. - [ISO/IEC 27001:2022 compliance: a practical implementation guide](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/iso-27001-2022): The security management system most EU procurement teams ask for alongside a DPA; its controls supply much of the Article 32 evidence. - [India's DPDP Act 2023: a practical compliance guide for cloud teams](https://support.icompaas.com/compliance/india-dpdp-act-2023): If engineering or support teams sit in India, the same data flows are also subject to India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act.
