Ico examines public confidence in data protection
The ICO recently released the results of a survey they created as part of their strategic plan to examine the general public’s trust in organisations that use their personal data.
The survey was produced as a key time, as many people are now online more than ever due to working from home. The ICO found that the public trust healthcare organisations with their data far more than social media applications and that significantly more people feel that current data protection laws protect their data.
Respondents said they would be more than likely to stop using a service if they felt that their personal information would not be secure. More respondents than ever are now likely to research how companies keep their data safe, which means it’s very important that your business is GDPR compliant, so as not to lose out on potential clients.
