In May 2018, the new data protection law came into action. This is tough new legislation that affects any organisation that holds data on citizens - like your sports team or club! You'll need to consider carefully how and why you hold information about your members or risk incurring a large fine. Luckily, we are here to help!

The EU GDPR is an EU Regulation and so no longer applies to the UK. When operating in the UK, you are required to comply with the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018).
The provisions of the EU GDPR have been incorporated directly into UK law as the UK GDPR.
The UK GDPR is the UK’s post-Brexit version of the EU GDPR.
The DPA 2018 sets out the framework for data protection law in the UK. It updates and replaces the Data Protection Act 1998, and came into effect on 25 May 2018. It was amended on 01 January 2021 by regulations under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, to reflect the UK’s status outside the EU.
It sits alongside and supplements the UK GDPR - for example by providing exemptions.
