The easiest way to get into trouble...
Due to the growth of the internet the world has got smaller and computers are getting faster and faster.
The amount of personal information passed around the web grows everyday and Personal Data Protection is hot news. Hardly a week goes by without reports of lost or mislaid personal information.
The Data Protection act has become an often quoted but misunderstood Act of Parliament. It affects almost all aspects of our daily lives, from applying for a credit card or booking a holiday, to going to the local GP, but because it works without us knowing it we can become complacent.
