GDPR, which stands for the new General Data Protection Regulation, affects virtually all businesses and trade associations large and small including schools, the health service, and the public sector in toto, and from 2019 even charities.
Any business handling personal data such as customer records, staff details, payroll and marketing databases using external platforms, like Force24, DotDigital, MailChimp, Constant Contact and others, must ensure that these processes comply with the new rules. Failure to adhere to the new regulations may result in fines from the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) of up to £18 million or 4% of turnover, whichever is greatest.
