Data Protection Compliance in the UK: GDPR and Local Requirements

April 2014

Overview

We outline how to align GDPR obligations with UK data protection rules, focusing on lawful bases, records of processing, and data minimization.

The publication includes practical checklists for controllers and processors, incident response, and vendor risk management.

International transfers

We describe transfer tools, contractual safeguards, and transfer impact assessment approaches consistent with EU best practices.

Operationalizing transfer controls reduces friction in cross-border data flows and audits.

Governance and enforcement

Adopting risk-based governance, training, and monitoring is essential given enhanced regulator powers.

We highlight trends in investigations, fines, and corrective measures, with practical lessons for organizations active in the UK.
