We want to engage more with our customers and help the community as a whole understand data protection and why it’s important. If you’re not sure about something or need advice on how the law applies to you, our helpful team at the Jersey Office of the Information Commissioner is on hand to answer your questions.
Most importantly, data protection should be looked at as a positive concept which seeks to hold those entrusted with our personal information accountable for what they do with it. Organisations need to look after it correctly and not abuse Islanders’ trust. We are committed to making data protection easy, understandable and accessible to everyone.
