Data Protection
At Birmingham Newman University we recognise that your privacy is a serious and important matter and we support the principles of protecting privacy within the context of current UK legislation.
The processing of personal data is regulated by the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
General information
The UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018 seek to strike a balance between the rights of the individual and the sometimes competing interests of those with legitimate reasons for using personal information. It gives individuals certain rights regarding information held about them.
It places obligations on those who process information while giving rights to those who are the subject of that data.
