In this episode we're hearing from Richard Field and Jarrad Knoetze of Appleby (Guernsey) LLP who we’ve invited to the podcast as part of Project Bijou.

Project Bijou is a social initiative we launched in May 2021 in the Bailiwick of Guernsey. With this project we’re encouraging everyone to share stories, knowledge and experiences relating to ethical data use, in a way that benefits everyone. The project aims to support and nurture positive cultural change around how people and organisations treat people’s data. We hope to engage people on a cultural level, a level that goes beyond law. You can find out more at odpa.gg/bijou.

Richard and Jarrad take a look at why data protection is not just a legal concept, but is part of our daily lives. Richard in his role as Chair of the Bailiwick of Guernsey Data Protection Association also discusses why building a network of privacy professionals is important for the island’s general wellbeing.
