Here is the honest situation. Belgium applies the GDPR through the Act of 30 July 2018 and adds its own provisions: a consent age of 13 for information society services, specific rules for genetic, biometric and health data, conditions on national register numbers, the journalism and expression exemptions, the law enforcement and intelligence regimes, and the distinctive structure of the Data Protection Authority with its inspection service and litigation chamber. Working out which Belgian provisions change the GDPR baseline and evidencing each is weeks of legal interpretation, and a controller that applies only the GDPR and misses the national register number rules is exactly where controllers fall short.
This Kit removes that interpretation. It is every obligation, GDPR baseline plus the Belgian derogations, written as an adopt-ready control you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence the Data Protection Authority examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in the Belgian Act of 30 July 2018 as a GDPR-implementing law, with the consent age of 13, the special-category rules, the national register number conditions, the journalism and expression exemptions and the Data Protection Authority structure called out. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is the GDPR baseline lawful basis and principles, on which the Belgian rules sit. All 33 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. A duty you cannot evidence is exposure to the Data Protection Authority. This tells you what is examined and where controllers fall short, for every obligation.
- The Belgian derogations built in. The consent age of 13, the national register number conditions and the special-category rules are written into the controls, the places a GDPR-only approach fails.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. The GDPR baseline maps onto every EU member state, so this work feeds a broader multi-jurisdiction privacy program.
Who buys this
Any organization processing personal data in Belgium, and the privacy, legal and compliance leads who own it. Whether it is a first assessment or a market entry, you save weeks and walk in with the Belgian derogations and the GDPR duties handled.
Common questions
Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.
Is this legal advice? No. It is an implementation toolkit grounded in the Act and the GDPR. For a specific matter consult Belgian counsel; this gets your controls and records in order fast.
Does it cover the national register number? Yes. The specific conditions for processing the national register number are built as a control, because they go beyond the GDPR.
What is the consent age? 13 for information society services. It is built as a control, because it differs from the GDPR default position.
