  • The lawful bases under the UK GDPR for sharing personal data with the police, and when each may apply
  • Considerations for compliance with the purpose limitation and data minimisation principles when providing the police with personal data
  • What to consider when sharing special category and criminal offence data with the police, including applicable conditions under the DPA 2018
