The Data Protection Act 1998 (“DPA”) sets out current data protection law within the UK.

Increasing amounts of data and personal information are shared and, at the same time, the risk of data breaches has grown. The need for an updated, modern piece of legislation governing data protection has become increasingly obvious.
