What is data protection and why should you care – is it all just a storm in a tea cup?

The team at The Bailiwick of Guernsey’s Office of the Data Protection Authority (ODPA) know that it affects us all and to help us understand why we should care are producing a series of podcasts tackling relevant issues in a friendly, informative format, perfect for over a cup of tea.

The new ‘Data Protection TeaBreak’ series features staff from the ODPA discussing a range of issues, including what data is, why it is important and how to think about it sustainably.

This first episode features the ODPA’s Rachel Masterton and Tim Loveridge discussing some of the background to data protection regulation and aspects of Guernsey’s local law compared to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). They talk about issues like consent and accountability and of course Brexit gets a mention.
