We have experienced significant changes in data protection laws with the UK & EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Given the substantial impact and the role that data has in both our personal and professional lives, GDPR provides a set of laws designed to ensure that the highest standards of data protection are at the heart of your operations.
