Preparing for the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)

GDPR (the General Data Protection Regulation) is a set of guidelines, which are legally binding through Europe for the processing and collection of personal data which originates from within the EU. GDPR applies to every organisation from sole traders to multinational PLC’s and is designed to protect the data privacy rights of the individual. All organisations are expected to comply with GDPR and penalties and fines are in place where it is found that requirements are not being met.

Why is 25th May 2018 an important date?

The 25th May is all important as this is the date the GDPR comes into force across Europe (not just the UK). For organisations not compliant you are in good company as many UK businesses will not be compliant by this date.

If you find your organisation is not compliant the challenge is to work towards compliance through taking all the necessary steps and actions.

GDPR comes into force from 25th May 2018
