Abstract: The Code is intended to
give clear guidance to managers of organisations as to what
steps they should take to comply with Data Protection Legislation
to avoid criminal penalties, unfavourable publicity and convey
trust and confidence to customers and other interested parties
Who is it aimed at?
This Code is primarily aimed at organisations carrying on
commercial businesses ranging from medium sized companies
to multinational corporations but may be used by any organisation
(all will be referred to throughout the Code simply as "organisations").
Organisations such as sole traders will only be concerned
with the fundamental aspects of the Code in respect to their
processing operations..
What is it about?
The objective of this Code of Conduct is to set out the operational
policies an organisation should adopt and the practical operational
steps it should take to comply with the EU Directive (95/46/EC)
on Privacy and Data Protection (the "Directive")
[and national laws implementing the Directive]. The Directive
reflects the fundamental rights and freedoms of an individual
to the right of privacy under Article 8 of the European Convention
for the Protection of Human Rights.
