General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
To ensure the laws overseeing data security and usage are fit for purpose, European regulators have created new rules to protect individuals’ data. This dedicated hub is to help you and your clients understand the impact.
We wish to continue to support you as you battle the minefield of regulatory change. Under GDPR, not only are you required to satisfy new rights of your clients, you’ll also need to demonstrate to the ICO and be more accountable for any breaches that may occur.
