Whispers concerning GDPR have been heard since 2015. Now in 2018, those whispers have become shouts. Countless blog posts and articles state businesses are still unprepared for the changes it will enforce.
In the pursuit of informing our clients and the public about GDPR’s impact, EveryCloud will be attending the GDPR in the Private Sector Conference at Old Trafford, Manchester, on Wednesday 24th January 2018. EveryCloud are giving away 10 free guest delegate passes worth £525 each for this exclusive event, so if you are interested in attending please contact discover@everycloud.co.uk.
Despite the vote to leave the European Union, the Government has confirmed that the General Data Protection Regulation will be enshrined in UK law from May 2018. This means that British businesses now have less than a year to prepare for the biggest shake-up in data protection legislation in decades, or risk incurring severe fines. As the UK’s digital economy grows, more and more companies are dependent on their ability to gather, transfer and analyse large amounts of data. With requirements covering everything from customer opt-ins and transparency to the compulsory appointment of a data protection officer, GDPR will have a disruptive impact on the way businesses operate.
GDPR in the Private Sector Conference is where expert speakers will explain how businesses of all sizes can ensure they are prepared for the changes in legislation. They will help you to understand how GDPR will affect everything from digital marketing to customer loyalty schemes, and you can learn how to protect your company from the threat of data breaches and make sure your IT systems meet the latest regulations.
We look forward to seeing you in Manchester!
