Data Protection and Compliance
The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, has brought a renewed focus on data protection for business in every industry, following the introduction of the Data Protection Act 2018.
All organisations are obliged to put processes in place for the purpose of data protection, and compliance is an ongoing issue rather than a one-off exercise.
As well as ensuring that new data is collected, processed and stored securely, all new business processes will also have to be risk-assessed for their potential effect on data security.

The consequences of not complying with GDPR
Failure to comply with the legislation can result in very large fines, which can be up to 4% of a company’s global turnover or €20 million (whichever is the larger amount).
In addition to financial penalties, data security breaches can be disastrous for the reputation of a business – if a company is targeted by a hacker and customer data is leaked as a result, the subsequent PR challenge could affect your reputation, share prices and more.
Loch Law are also specialists in handling Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs), and can take care of all parts of the response process for you.Â
