Businesses responsibility in the handling of data is set to swell with the introduction of the new General Data Protection Regulations which are due to come into force in May 2018.
The new Regulations will not only heighten a business’s accountability for their own practices, it will create a new responsibility for the handling of data by those which it shares information with, in the absence of proper contractual provisions.
Guidance from the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) is still thin on the ground with the ’12 Steps to take now’ booklet which is available on their website.
