The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and research integrity: some resources
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force in May 2018. The introduction of this legislation has implication for all who process, hold or manage personal data, including researchers and research organisations.

- Information Commissioner’s Office: Guide to the GDPR
- JISC: GDPR resources
- Health Research Authority: GDPR guidance
- Medical Research Council: GDPR resources
