What is GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides a framework for how businesses, charities, public bodies, and other organisations can collect, process, store and share personal data. 

It strengthens individual rights and unifies data protection laws across the EU and UK. It has been legally required since 2018 and exists in two compatible forms: EU GDPR (applies in the EU) and UK GDPR (applies in the UK), and in the UK, it works alongside the Data Protection Act 2018. 

    Why Is It Important to Comply With GDPR?

    Avoid Penalties

    GDPR compliance is crucial to meet mandatory legal requirements, avoiding fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global turnover, litigation costs, and compensation claims.

    Enhanced Data Security

    GDPR mandates robust security measures to reduce the risk of data breaches and cyber-attacks. This protects sensitive information and minimises the impact of potential incidents.

    Cyber security FAQs

    The financial penalties for a data breach under GDPR have risen significantly from those under the old Data Protection Act (1998). Fines can now be as high as €20 million or 4% of annual global turnover (whichever is greater) for the most serious category of breach.

    Personal data is information that relates to a living individual. It means the individual can be identified directly or indirectly by one or more pieces of information specific to them. Examples include your name, email address, passport number, IP address, or location data. 

    Yes. There’s a myth that companies with fewer than 250 employees don’t have to comply with GDPR. This misconception stems from Article 30, which concerns the keeping of records of processing activities and includes exceptions for organisations with fewer than 250 staff.  

    There is no UK-based GDPR certification scheme yet, though the Information Commissioner is reviewing this. The best way to show compliance to potential customers is through a GDPR audit, which provides an independent overview. WorkNest Secure can help with this. 

    No, a privacy notice is essential for meeting the GDPR transparency principle, but it does not make you GDPR compliant. Compliance requires addressing governance, designing data protection into projects, keeping records of personal data, creating policies and procedures for its use, and providing training, among other requirements.
