It's a start, but that is only the easy part, where the goal is relatively simple to figure out. You also have to explicitly get legal documents signed if you make a system for companies that "own" the user data.
You need to have new procedures for obtaining, storing, using, and delete customer data. This is known as a "code of conduct". You need sufficient logging to aid incident analysis too.
I also think a lot of companies are entering a bit of panic mode because there is no clear guideline on what is sensitive data. If you make a booking system, then everything you store is potentially sensitive if you have end user data in it. If you're making IoT devices for the home with cloud access, then you have sensitive data.
The conclusion we've reached is fairly simple. If there a even a remote chance that normal day to day use of our systems contains data that can be used to build a profile of a user, then the systems data is considered sensitive.
