Eleanor Roosevelt once stated that you should "learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself". This quote resonates with Kellie and Regina as they believe that you can learn from every personal data breach that has occurred, regardless of how large or small it is.
On many an occasion over the past 2 years, we have either been told or overheard someone saying "GDPR says no...". Our instinctive reaction is, "but does it really say that?". 9 times out of 10 our answer would be, "no, GDPR does not say that". For example:
The UK officially left the EU on 31st January 2020, and we are now in a period of transition.

Description: Very much like your annual MOT reminder, your GDPR compliance service is Now Due!
On 25th May 2020 The General Data Protection Regulation ('GDPR') was be 2 years old! It is hard to believe that it has been 2 years since the GDPR came into force.
What a thrill to be here again for the sixth 'My Data Protection Diary', the last for this 2020... now there are very few days left until the end of this year and I am so grateful to have shared with you this series about my profession and my business sector!
In fact, I’m going to take this opportunity to express some of my thoughts on these blank pages, which I am ready to fill with new and interesting topics on data protection.
I selected one of the most engaging and insightful lessons with Kellie, ending the year with sparkling reflections and bombshell information! Clarifying a hot topic in our society: cookies (and I am not talking about biscuits ;))
