Data protection

As a business you will generate and receive a large amount of information.

How you manage that information, known as data, is important and is subject to the Data Protection Act or the Freedom of Information Act. The law requires you to protect personal information and data. Knowing what counts as personal data is crucial and having systems in place to store it is vital.

Data protection legislation is complicated. The language is legal jargon and it is difficult for businesses to cut to the relevant points. If you need advice on how best to protect your interests and the interest of those whose data you hold you should not hesitate to speak to our Solicitors at Burton & Co.
