Data protection in the UK is governed by the Data Protection Act 2018. The Act came into force on 23rd May 2018 and is the UK’s implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It controls how personal information is used by organisations such as 91视频, businesses or the government.
91视频 holds and processes information about its employees, applicants, students, alumni, and other individuals who are defined as “data subjects” under the Act. The University processes personal data for a variety of reasons, which include administering the admissions process and operating payroll; recording academic progress; monitoring attendance; and enabling references to be provided.
This area of the website enables students, staff and visitors to access information relating to Data Protection. It is divided into the following sub-sections:
A breach of the Data Protection Act could damage the University’s reputation in addition to the Information Commissioner imposing a substantial fine for a serious breach. Please visit the Data Security Breach Guidance for more information.
Any queries with regard to data protection should be directed in the first instance to the Data Protection and Freedom of Information Officer at dpandfoi@marjon.ac.uk
