GDPR Changes

On the 25th May 2018 changes to UK data privacy law come into effect.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is changing the way businesses control your data to make sure you are better protected.

As part of the changes DTA & Co. need to let customers know what information we keep and why we keep the information that we do.

DTA & Co. only store and use information in order to:

o           Verify your identity.

o           Communicate with you in connection with the service(s) we provide to you.

o           Assist us to perform the services we provide for you, for example (but not restricted to) using your VAT or HMRC reference numbers to submit statutory returns or other information on your behalf.

o          Suggest additional services that we can provide, or ways that you operate your business that will improve your business and / or personal position. Such suggestions may include reference to third party services or information but we will never pass on any of your details to said third parties without your explicit consent.

o         Detect and prevent fraud or other criminal activity.

o        Comply with any requests made to us by HMRC or other regulatory or legal authorities in connection with any enquires they may make into your affairs.

Please note that whilst we will always endeavour to notify you that we have responded to such requests and provide a note of any of your personal information that we have shared, this may not always be possible due to legal reasons.

DTA & Co. promise to:

o             Keep your information safe

o             Not sell your data to any third party

o             Give you the right to change any data we hold on you

This should not affect our business relationship as it currently stands however if any further changes are made then DTA & Co. will make all customers aware.

If you have any concerns or questions please do not hesitate to contact DTA & Co. on 01324 228381 or email info@dtaccounting.co.uk
