Two things European operations get wrong in Portugal

Both from applying a group standard to a national rule.

Home › Solutions

Neither failure is Portuguese in origin. Both come from applying a group-wide standard that was set with reference to a different regime.

The period counted from connection

A dor

The group service-level standard measures from connection, as most do, and the Portuguese rule measures from the menu selection. The operation reports compliance and is not compliant.

A resposta

Reconfiguration of the measurement to the national rule, with independent verification by sampled anonymous calls to confirm the corrected figure.

Necessidade de transformação

From a group metric to the metric the law requires.

A ninety-day retention applied without reasoning

A dor

Ninety days is applied because the group applies it, or because the repealed Portuguese rule once required it. The period may well be appropriate; the written reasoning that would justify it does not exist.

A resposta

Determination and written justification of the retention period, with the lawful basis, the access procedure and the deletion procedure recorded.

Necessidade de transformação

From an inherited period to a justified one.
