With the automatically imposed fines of 4% of a business’s annual turnover (or £20million whichever is the greater), you absolutely must take notice of these new regulations which come into force in March 2018. If you do not, then this is potentially business suicide. Early indications are that the various government departments will be using sniper and pin-point tactics to catch out those who are not compliant with the new regulations, seeing it as a lucrative and easy new revenue stream.
You cannot be complacent about this or hope potential problems will go away or you wont be caught out. Very often, competitor businesses or disgruntled ex-employees or customers, pose the biggest threat to dobbing you in if your compliance with GDPR is in any way doubted.
At Achieve Legal, we believe that prevention is always better than cure. A prime example of our pro-active approach to legal services, is to prepare in advance for any changes in legislation and to have systems and practices in place ready.
