Today we have award winning lawyer Suzanne Dibble taking us step by step through what we need to do as massage therapists to get GDPR compliant! The date for this is 25th May 2018 - so Suzanne helps us (and me!) to understand what we need to be doing and simplifies the entire process!!

She helps us with:

- What is GDPR and why we need to be compliant

- How the 20 million euro fine works!?

- The difference between data and sensitive data

- What we need to be adding to our client intake forms

- Why and what we should be doing to update our websites

- Talks through 'real' examples of how us as massage therapists need to approach this

- How to approach the idea of consent

- What we should be doing with our current email lists and soft opt-in

- Discussing the use of legitimate interest for our marketing

So...grab a pen and paper. Make yourself some notes and then head over to her FB group and buy her GDPR compliance pack!

More about Suzanne:

Suzanne Dibble is a multi-award winning business lawyer who consults with multi-nationals on data protection law and the upcoming GDPR.

The Legal Services Board and the Law Society have heralded her innovative approach to helping small business owners with complex regulations.

Suzanne worked with Richard Branson at Virgin where she managed a group wide data protection project which resulted in Virgin nominating Suzanne for the Solicitor of the Year Award and subsequently Suzanne was runner up in this prestigious award.

Suzanne has had second to none training and experience at a top City law firm, leading billion pound deals and being on the Board of a £100m+ business (resulting in her being listed in the Who’s Who of Britain’s Business Elite two years in a row).

Suzanne is one of the few lawyers who really understands small business owners and puts law and regulation in the context of your business.

There has been a lot of scaremongering and hype about GDPR (with the headline fines of €20m) and Suzanne brings a practical, balanced approach.
