"Who is your celebrity doppelgänger?" "What does your pet say about your personality?" While it may sound funny at first, when you answer questions like these on social media, you reveal a lot more than you intend. In fact, every time you go online, you give away your data, whether you want to or not. Your location, your shopping habits, your banking details. So how important is your privacy to you?

There are people who will exploit this data. And it's not just cybercriminals. Legitimate companies, often the ones you shop with, collect and sell this data. Why? Well, the shopper can use it to target you with ads for relevant products and services. That's an incredibly useful asset for a business. Thankfully, there are a number of regulations in place to help you keep your personal data to yourself. It's called the UK GDPR and this course aims to explain it to you in the most interesting way possible.

At the end of this course you will be able to:

• Demonstrate your understanding of the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act
• Explain the relationship between the UK GDPR and the data protection laws of other countries, including the EU GDPR
• Define the 7 core principles of the UK GDPR
• Demonstrate that you understand what personal data is
• Apply the 7 core principles of the UK GDPR to common workplace situations

Why take this course?

Keeping your data safe is a big deal in the modern world. You understandably want to keep control of your data. Organisations that collect data are legally obliged to protect your data under the GDPR. If they don't, the consequences are severe. A fine of up to €20 million, for example, is a heavy one. This course is therefore useful for both individuals and companies. We will help you stay safe and compliant.
