The Data Protection (Charges and Information) Regulations 2018 were introduced to support the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the United Kingdom and to ensure that businesses and organisations processing personal data comply with their obligations under data protection law.
The Regulations establish requirements related to the payment of data protection charges by data controllers to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and the provision of certain information to individuals about how their personal data is processed. Compliance with these regulations is essential for businesses and organisations processing personal data in the UK to ensure compliance with data protection law and avoid penalties for non-compliance.
