Data Protection
Protecting personal data goes beyond just being a matter of legal risk. The reputational risks to a business that result from security breaches or a failure to comply with data protection laws are very real and significant.
The GDPR continues to be relevant to United Kingdom businesses even after Brexit and to how a business collects and manages personal data.
In light of the above and the value that can be attributed to the personal data collected by a business, data protection should be a key issue for all businesses. Employers, suppliers, contracting parties and other holders of personal data need to be extremely careful and be able to show they have appropriate systems and protections in place to demonstrate compliance with relevant legislation, including the GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
At Franklins Solicitors LLP, we can assist your business in understanding the risks associated with its data processing activities and provide tailored advice and guidance that will allow your business to comply with its obligations under the United Kingdom and European Union data protection regimes. This can include writing tailored policies and procedures that reflect your business operations and data processing activities.
If you require further advice or assistance regarding data protection then please do not hesitate to contact Christopher Buck on 01908 660966 or christopher.buck@franklins-sols.co.uk.
