UK GDPR: data protection in the UK

UK GDPR is the UK’s version of the GDPR framework retained after Brexit. It sets rules for how personal data is collected, used, stored, and shared. For marketing, UK GDPR intersects with consent, email marketing permissions, data retention, and vendor contracts.

Practical considerations

  • Know your lawful basis for processing and document it.
  • Use consent-aware tagging for analytics/marketing cookies.
  • Control access to data and keep audit logs for sensitive systems.
