United Kingdom الخصوصية
- الحالة
- In force since 1 Jan 2021 (retained from EU GDPR); DUAA 2025 data protection changes fully in force by 19 June 2026.✓
- على من ينطبق
- Organisations processing personal data in the context of a UK establishment, and non-UK organisations offering goods/services to, or monitoring the behaviour of, people in the UK.✓
- حدود الحجم
- None — applies regardless of size.✓
- الجهة الرقابية
- Information Commission (replaced the Information Commissioner's Office on 30 Sep 2026; still uses the 'ICO' name)✓
- الإبلاغ عن الخروقات أو الحوادث
- Report notifiable breaches to the Information Commission without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours. Tell affected individuals without undue delay if high risk. PECR breaches by telecoms providers: without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours (PECR reg 5A(2), since 20 Aug 2025).✓
- مهلة الرد على طلبات البيانات الشخصية
- 1 month, extendable by 2 months for complex or numerous requests. For access requests the clock pauses while you seek info needed to scope the request (Art 12A, requests from 5 Feb 2026). Searches need only be reasonable and proportionate.✓
- مسؤول حماية البيانات
- DPO mandatory for public authorities and where core activities involve large-scale systematic monitoring or large-scale special-category/criminal data (same tests as EU GDPR).✓
- الممثل المحلي
- Non-UK organisations with no UK establishment that target or monitor people in the UK must appoint a UK representative in writing, unless processing is occasional and low-risk or they are a public authority.✓
- نقل البيانات إلى الخارج
- Transfers need UK adequacy regulations (data bridges), or the IDTA / UK Addendum to EU SCCs, or BCRs. Since 5 Feb 2026 the adequacy test is whether protection is 'not materially lower'; existing TRAs remain usable.✓
- ملفات تعريف الارتباط والموافقة
- PECR: consent needed for non-essential cookies, but since 5 Feb 2026 low-risk statistical/analytics and functionality cookies can be set without consent if users get clear info and an opt-out. Ad/tracking cookies still need consent.✓
- أقصى عقوبة
- Up to £17.5 million or 4% of worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher (lower tier £8.7m or 2%). PECR fines raised to the same level from 5 Feb 2026.✓

- Review cookie banners: drop consent only for exempt analytics/functionality cookies.
- Add safeguards (info, human review, challenge) to significant automated decisions.
