Protecting Personal Data with Django (because it's the law)

on YouTube ↗40m

" summary

GDPR becomes enforceable on 25 May 2018 and requires systems to answer data access/rectification/erasure/portability requests within 30 days and report breaches within 72 hours. Django already helps: auth, admin and serialization cover basic access and rectification, but teams must implement per-field encryption or crypto‑shredding for deletion, build data‑portability exports (structured, machine‑readable), proxy external resources to avoid leaking IPs, tag personal fields in models, and plan for automated‑decision and anonymization risks.
