UK General Data Protection Regulation & Data Protection Act 2018 (United Kingdom)-UK GDPR

The UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018 form the core framework of data protection law in the United Kingdom. The legislation regulates the processing of personal data by public and private organisations, establishing obligations relating to lawful processing, consent, transparency, data security, accountability, individual rights, and international data transfers. The framework provides individuals with rights over their personal information and empowers the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) to supervise and enforce compliance.
