GDPR

In May 2018, the way in which we are required to treat your personal data changed as a result of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

We take your privacy very seriously. Please read the Privacy Policy attached to this web site carefully as it contains important information on how and why we collect, store, use and share your personal data. It also explains your rights in relation to your personal data and how to contact us or supervisory authorities if you have cause to.

We use your personal data primarily to provide legal services to you, but also for related purposes as described in our Privacy Policy, we do not use any data for purposes in which were not intended when you entrusted us with this information.

Lincoln House Chambers had been preparing for GDPR compliance long before the May deadline. We understand GDPR and have created internal policies which allow for our full compliance. All members of Chambers, associate members, pupils and all staff have been fully trained in GDPR and this is now part of the induction process for anyone who joins us after May 2018. We have a very detailed internal data protection policy which deals with the organisational and technical measures required to ensure all our data is securely stored, transported and backed up. We have up to date technology and have external experts test our systems to ensure that we are pro active in defending against weaknesses as which arise through technological advances.

Please do not hesitate in contacting David Wright or Sigourney Lomax if you require any further information or assistance.
