Our very own Data Rockstar has been invited to talk at the December meeting of the Banbury Women in Business. There should be no surprise that the subject of Kellie's talk will be GDPR.
Data protection can seem like a daunting prospect, especially for many charities and small organisations. This workshop aims to help you gain an understanding of what your responsibilities are under the current Data Protection Act. It also provides practical tips on how to process personal and sensitive data without breaching the Act, as well as getting ready for the new General Data Protection Regulations that will come into force in the UK in May 2018.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will come into effect on the 25th of May 2018 and is the most significant change to data protection law in almost 20 years. The GDPR strengthens a number of existing principles and introduces more rights for individuals in the use of their personal data. GDPR should not be viewed as a tick-box exercise, that once ‘compliant’ it can be forgotten about. Charities need to view the regulation as one that requires on going monitoring and adherence. This half day training session will introduce the GDPR to delegates, describe the differences between the Data Protection Act 1998 and provide practical steps that need to be taken in order to start implementing GDPR.
This is the 3rd 'Data Protection Challenges for Charities' training event that Databasix has delivered through the Oxfordshire Community and Voluntary Action (OCVA). Please find below details of what to expect:
Our resident Data Rockstar, Kellie Peters has been invited by Chapman Robinson and Moore Accountants to deliver a free workshop on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Data leaks are a serious problem for organisations and individuals. In this day and age, individuals freely provide personal information to organisations, therefore a data leak can have a significant impact on both the company and the person. They often involve the exposure of personal data (such as name, address and financial details), with additional damage to the company or organisation in terms of potential financial loss and reputational damage.
