DATA PROTECTION LAW 

The Data Protection Act 1998 describes how organisations — including Slow Food in the UK— must collect, handle and store personal information. 

These rules apply regardless of whether data is stored electronically, on paper or on other materials. 

To comply with the law, personal information must be collected and used fairly, stored safely and not disclosed unlawfully. 

The Data Protection Act is underpinned by eight important principles. These say that personal data must: 

1. Be processed fairly and lawfully 

2. Be obtained only for specific, lawful purposes 

3. Be adequate, relevant and not excessive 

4. Be accurate and kept up to date 

5. Not be held for any longer than necessary 

6. Processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects 

7. Be protected in appropriate ways 

8. Not be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), unless that country or territory also ensures an adequate level of protection
