The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has caused much confusion within the communications industry around the responsibilities of different parties and who needs to do what in order to comply. Very few seem to have any clarity and, rather like the movie franchise, it’s all a bit fifty shades of grey.

In this episode of the Digital Download podcast, I talk to founder of KC Communications Katrina Cliffe about the core areas of GDPR that PR and communications professionals need to understand and where they can get advice when they need it, and we dig into some of the detail of legacy data, ‘legitimate interest’ and data security. I also ask Katrina questions put to me by members of the Digital Download Membership community.
