Data Protection - The Basics
Data protection doesn’t have to be dull! We’ll give you an overview of the basics of data protection legislation, the good, the bad and the ugly and we’ll set out why it’s important to make sure this legislation is always at the back of your mind.
About ALT Legal
At ALT Legal, we’re all about helping businesses with their legal needs—if it’s business-related, we’ve got you covered! We’re a small but mighty team of lawyers who pride ourselves on giving practical, no-nonsense legal advice. We’re not your typical law firm, and that’s by design.
We offer two simple ways to work with us:
✔ Subscription-based support – where we’re your go-to legal team for ongoing needs.
✔ Fixed-fee projects – where we scope out the work upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
We won’t always be the cheapest option, but we will always be upfront, transparent, and focused on giving you peace of mind—no surprise bills, ever. We’ll also be honest if you don’t actually need a lawyer or if there’s a simpler solution that gets the job done.
Our goal? To be in sync with your business, providing the right legal support when you need it—without slowing you down. We’re here to help you get things done, not to be a roadblock.
