Based on GDPR privacy in UML: Case of e-learning program

Data privacy regulatory framework is evolving. The long awaited EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) sets new standards by increasing and improving online personal data protection (i.e. privacy). In order for informatics to take and safeguard a firm compliance stand, privacy concerns should be addressed both by design and by default. In the same time special attention is needed as to avoid smothering the added value provided by the (vast) quantity and (low) cost of web-residing-information. By combining regulation, information privacy and best practices into UML use case diagrams, paper in hand examines GDPR requirements by utilizing the educational e-platform paradigm “Law Courses”¹. Ultimately it aims to equip engineers with a GDPR-standards compatible software incorporation case.
