[icegram campaigns=”5218″]Data Protection, a subject soon to be in the news on a daily basis as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) becomes enforceable from 25th May 2018.
The NCCF is ensuring compliance with the regulations to protect any data we may hold about you.
What all this means is that any organisation that collects data about people must have a legitimate reason for holding and processing that data and a system in place to ensure the data is kept safe, secure and is only used for the identified purpose.
You will receive lots of ‘Opt-In’ requests from all the different organisations you interact with in your daily lives as they all move toward full GDPR compliance.
The biggest change for you as individuals is that there is no longer a presumed ‘Opt-In’ for communications to be sent to you over different media. This has changed to a presumed ‘Opt-Out’ and a user-driven confirmed ‘Opt-In’.

I just need to make sure that I “OPTED/IN” when Exposure was first published. As a Nuclear Veteran, I served in HMS MESSINA in 1957/58 as a Seaman Petty Officer, covering GRAPPLE X and Y.
The World moved on. I retired from the RN in July 1983 as a Commander, LVO, OBE. Like many, my subsequent family and I contracted various complaints. In 1970 I developed a brain tumour and skin cancer. The operation for the former left me with chronic Fibromyalgia, a complaint of the central nervous system. Two of my boys have only recently had carcinogenic complaints, testicular cancer, and both having to have their Thyroid glands removed for the same reason.
Not surprisingly I have been in correspondence with the CHRC at Brunel – this in a fruitless attempt to pursue the. prospect of DNA testing. I follow other veterans experience with interest. Thank you.
