GDPR Principle 7 - Your business must provide data protection training for all staff

From May 25th 2018 the Data Protection laws are changing with GDPR coming into force. Human error, caused by a lack of understanding of how to comply with GDPR, could cost you 4% of your turnover or 20 million euros, whichever is higher!

The UK Information Commisioner’s Office (ICO) states that “GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified”.

Are you aware that any of the following are deemed to be personal data?

• Name

• Address

• Telephone number

• Email address – either personal or business

• Location data

• Online identifier

Do you understand an individual’s rights and how your business will comply with these rights?

Most small to medium sized businesses have been left confused by what is required of them but our range of GDPR online courses will provide training suitable for all staff at all levels.

To become compliant and meet regulations, the ICO states under GDPR Principle 7 that your business must provide data protection training and refresher training for all staff.
