AdvicePro's Commitment to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force on May 25th 2018 and will affect every organisation which holds or processes personal data. It will introduce new responsibilities, more stringent enforcement and increased penalties than the current Data Protection Act which it will supersede.

All of our staff and those of our hosting provider are familiar with GDPR and their personal responsibilities.

Our staff are trained on Data Protection issues on commencement of employment and this is updated as and when regulations change or are updated.

All data is held within the UK on servers based in Dundee and Aberdeen.

All storage is secure and our hosting provider has GDPR procedures in place.

We have a notification process in place for any breach.

AdvicePro provides appropriate tools to allow all customers to properly enact the right to erasure process.

AdvicePro provides functionality to allow the details of a client to be extracted in a machine readable format (XML).

ACM Solutions, who develop, manage and provide the helpdesk services for AdvicePro and our current hosting partner (BrightSolid Ltd) are ISO27001 accredited.
