The General data protection regulation (GDPR) is being implemented in the European Union from 25th May 2018 which would replace the current data protection act. Despite Brexit, the Government has confirmed its intention to bring the EU GDPR into UK law, ensuring the country’s data protection framework is suitable for the digital age and allows data subjects better control of their data.
