What data protection rights do my customers and employees have?

In England & Wales, an individual has a right to obtain and control how personal data or information is used, stored & communicated. The Data Protection Act (DPA) together with the developing privacy laws and The Human Rights Act are creating new rights and remedies for individuals.

GDPR Compliance

GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and it’s Europe’s data privacy and security legislation. The GDPR is the most stringent privacy and security protocol in the world. Though it was designed and passed by the European Union (EU), it imposes obligations on worldwide companies if they target or collect data from customers in the EU. The regulation came into force on May 25, 2018.

Our team can help your company understand how GDPR impacts your business processes and procedures, and ultimately how you can ensure you’re compliant.
