The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force on 25 May 2018, with new responsibilities, more stringent enforcement and substantially increased penalties than the current Data Protection Act (DPA) which it supersedes.

GDPR impacts every organisation serving citizens or customers in the EU – regardless of Brexit – and introduces a variety of new rules including the need to demonstrate compliance. Its arrival is forcing organisations across the UK to quickly get to grips with what, where and how they are using personal data, in order to avoid costly fines and damaging the trust of their customers and citizens. 

While GDPR is now being enforced, many organisations are still struggling to ensure they're compliant with the new regulation and are unsure of the steps to take to scale and adapt their processes and platforms for ongoing compliance. So how can you ensure your organisation remains compliant as your services and business continue to grow and evolve?
