GDPR

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was made EU law on 25th May 2018.

Post Brexit, the GDPR has been kept in UK law as the UK GDPR.

The new data protection regulations have been designed to strengthen existing data protection laws, by expanding the rights of individuals to control how their personal information is collected and processed and places new obligations on businesses to be more accountable for data protection.

PCMIS is committed to the new regulations and recognises the importance and responsibility of protecting personal information.
