Event industry digital marketing agency Vividfish has partnered with specialist data protection consultancy Herbert & Ball LLP to provide an offer specifically relating to website compliance for the GDPR, which is being enforced from 25th May 2018.
Vividfish project director, Kevin Horler said, “Whatever may have been said about the GDPR, it remains one of the biggest changes to data law to happen in the last 20 years, something of this magnitude needs to be taken serious and the solutions offered need to be based in fact and viewed from a legal perspective. We have been working in digital marketing since 1997 and specialising in the events industry since 2003 so we know our onions, however, we are not experts in the law surrounding data management and the effect it will have so we have chosen to partner with Herbert & Ball to provide surety from a legal compliance perspective”.

“After so much speculation about what will be required, how it will be enforced, what can be ‘worked around’, we have taken the view that true compliance will prevent the ever increasing need to fudge a system until the point that it finally breaches the regulations. It is increasingly frustrating to read comments and opinions where the GDPR is likened to Y2K, an issue that was a technical problem without a legal imperative for any organisation to comply, through to the imposition of CDM, which is based upon a reportable offence being the trigger for an investigation more than policing actions. Because this is in the digital domain, because it involves individual people and their response to mishandling of their data, the GDPR is far more compelling than either of the previous to examples. Do it right and do it right now, has been our GDPR motto for a good while and it will remain so,” concluded Horler.
