Data Protection is the Law that protects the rights of individuals in relation to the processing of their personal data.
The law provides strict rules about how certain people and organisations hold your data. This data must be:
– obtained and processed fairly
– only held for its specified and lawful purpose
– held safe and secure
– accurate, complete and up to date
– provided a copy to you if you request it.
If your data rights have been infringed, then you may be entitled to compensation.
