When you’re next offered a coffee at an exhibition or conference before you dispose of your cup take a closer look.

The EU’s General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) came into force on 25th May. Regulated by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) the overall legal liabilities are much the same as health and safely law with the risk of prosecution by the ICO for breaches of GDPR and civil law suits from individuals who feel that they have a legitimate claim against an organisation for misuse of their personal data. The ICO has played down press scaremongering saying that they will act proportionately and to put it into context the ICO issued 57 monetary penalties and carried out 19 prosecutions in 2017. Notwithstanding this is a considerable expansion of current regulations and the sanctions have increased from a maximum of £500,000 per breach to the greater of 4% of group global turnover or €20 million so it needs to be taken seriously particularly by large organisations.
