Introduction

This document refers to personal data, which is defined as information concerning any living 
person or ‘live’ organisation (who throughout this document will be called the Data Subject) 
that is not already in the public domain.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) seeks to protect and enhance the rights of data 
subjects. These rights cover the safeguarding of personal data, protection against the unlawful 
processing of personal data and the unrestricted movement of personal data within the EU. It 
should be noted that GDPR does not apply to information already in the public domain.
