GDPR and data protection

On the 25th May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force in the UK.

The GDPR requires public authorities and businesses to identify the lawful basis for storing personal data, audit information we already hold and take a ‘secure by design’ approach to personal data.

It also introduces new individual rights relating to personal data, such as the right to erasure or the right to rectification.

This means, amongst other things, that the data held about you must only be used for specific purpose allowed by law. We are therefore writing to tell you about the types of data held, why that data is held and with whom it may be shared.

Privacy notice

Our updated Privacy Notice is effective from the 25th May 2018 and you can view a copy of it at GDPR – Meridian Trust request a copy at our academy reception or you can ask us to post a copy to you.

The website also details information about the new GDPR bill as it passes through the UK Parliament and links to the Information Commissioners Office (ICO).
