GDPR & Data Protection

Most people think GDPR is about cookie banners. It is not. Personal data is anything that can identify a living person, and most employees handle it every day without realising it.

The maximum fine under UK GDPR. The ICO treats inadequate employee training as an aggravating factor. It directly affects the size of penalties.

The seven data protection principles including lawfulness, purpose limitation, and accountability
The six lawful bases for processing personal data and when each applies
Individual rights including Subject Access Requests and how to handle them

Who it's for and why it matters
Who it's for
Any organisation that handles personal data, which in practice means almost every organisation. Particularly relevant to HR, finance, marketing, customer service, and anyone in a management or data-handling role. Equally useful for new starters and employees who completed training years ago.
Why it matters
Under UK GDPR, EU GDPR, and equivalent legislation, staff training is not optional. The ICO treats inadequate training as an aggravating factor in enforcement decisions. Getting training documented and in place is one of the most straightforward ways to demonstrate compliance and reduce your exposure.
