25th June 2018GDPR Guidance Poster

On the 25th May 2018 , the data protection directive will be replaced when the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes in to force. This means that all organisations who deal with data need to review their procedures and processes and understand the changes and how if will affect them.
