The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new, European-wide law that replaces the Data Protection Act 1998 in the UK, with effect from 25 May 2018. It places greater obligations on how businesses and organisations – from sole traders to multinationals – handle the personal data of EU Citizens.
This Guide is intended to be helpful to Waving Moose clients – generally sole service providers, small businesses, charities and community organisations – in understanding new obligations under the GDPR in relation to the personal data that you hold.
