Book todayThe GDPR, which came into effect on 25 May 2018, has revolutionised data protection legislation. The DPA 2018 incorporates the GDPR into UK law and fills in aspects of the Regulation that were left to individual member states to interpret and implement. The DPA 2018 covers certain types of personal data processing that fall outside the GDPR’s scope, including processing by public authorities. It also sets out data processing regimes for law enforcement and intelligence purposes.
The DPA 2018 supports the GDPR, which is why the two laws should be read together to ensure you fully understand your regulatory obligations.

Learn from an experienced privacy consultant and discover the difference between Part 2 and Part 3 of the DPA 2018. This course covers Part 3 processing, including matters directly relevant to the processing of personal data for law enforcement purposes.
