Due to the Data (Use and Access) Act coming into law on 19 June 2025, this guidance is under review and may be subject to change. The Plans for new and updated guidance page will tell you about which guidance will be updated and when this will happen.
We have produced two separate toolkits depending on which legal framework your organisation will be processing under. This will depend on your type of organisation and why you will be processing personal data.
You can find more information about the different legislation in our Canllaw i Ddiogelu Data .
For information on processing under part 3 of the Data Protection Act 2018, see our Guide to Law Enforcement Processing.
