The new General Data Protection Regulations GDPR came into effect in May 2018, and all salon businesses which handle, and store personal information are now required to comply with the regulations or face large fines. The Guild’s GDPR course has been written specifically for salon businesses and takes you through all the required steps you need to ensure you are compliant. The course also allows you to create a Privacy Statement for your salon business which you will need to provide to all your salon clients.

WHAT IS GDPR?
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is effective from May 2018 and replaces the old Data Protection Act 1988. GDPR is designed to give even greater safeguards to personal data, such as the information kept on client record cards. Your salon businesses must comply with GDPR requirements, and you could face a fine of up to 20 million euros if you don’t. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) legislation applies to all the personal data you have on record as a business.
