A question of balance
The UK government has put in place a legislative framework seeking to balance collective security needs with the privacy of the individual.
These include the:
- Data Protection Acts.
- Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive.
- Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act.
- Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA).
We aim to comply fully with this legislation - which covers areas from communications intercepts to help police investigations, to data retention and spam.
