Data Privacy FAQs
Data Privacy is today considered an essential part of supporting the digital economy and is increasingly receiving high levels of media attention, primarily or the wrong reasons. In the UK, the key pieces of legislation governing data protection are the UK General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) (2016/679) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Data privacy is considered a fundamental human right, and data protection legislation exists to protect that right. Data privacy is important because in order for individuals to be willing to engage with organisations, they have to have confidence that their personal data will be handled with care. Organisations are increasingly using data protection practices to demonstrate to their customers and users that they can be trusted with their personal data.
