Data protection compliance is everyone’s responsibility and vitally important when sharing digital content online. From collecting personal data as part of an oral history project to sharing the names of participants in a community project — it all falls under UK Data Protection law. This 10-step guide by Dr Kit Good will explain what you need to know before you share personal data online.

To accompany the release of the Digital guide: online privacy and security, a webinar was hosted by The National Lottery Heritage Fund on 16 July 2020. The speakers: Josie Fraser, Head of Digital Policy at The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Naomi Korn, Managing Director at Naomi Korn Associates, discuss key data security and privacy issues facing heritage organisations.

Safeguarding the privacy of people in and across the heritage sector and keeping information secure is important. This guide includes checklists, practical advice and resources to help understand and manage online activity, and help you, and the communities you support, stay safe.
