Hi everyone,

This month Dr W Kuan Hon has very kindly agreed to come along to our Identity Tech Talk and present on data protection laws.

This will be an hour long presentation with a short break in the middle.

Abstract: If you're working with data, how do data protection laws affect you? What about the potentially huge fines under the General Data Protection Regulation? Does Brexit mean that you can ignore the GDPR? Come and find out about some of the myths and realities behind data protection law.
