ICO Launches Public Consultation on New Data Sharing Code of Practice
On July 16, 2019, the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) released a new draft Data sharing code of practice, which provides practical guidance for organizations on how to share personal data in a manner that complies with data protection laws.
The draft Code focuses on the sharing of personal data between controllers, with a section referring to other ICO guidance on engaging processors. The draft Code reiterates a number of legal requirements from the GDPR and DPA, while also including good practice recommendations to encourage compliance.
