Our information governance experts were asked to provide GDPR support and advice to Basketball England, the national sporting body.
Data protection for national sporting bodies
Like all organisations that process data, sporting bodies should be mindful of how they manage information.
National sports governing bodies often handle personal information about members and partners, making them a data controller.
It’s important you know how to manage this data in accordance with legislation such as UK GDPR.
