# GDPR and Data Protection

#### What is the UK GDPR?

The [UK General Data Protection Regulation](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/eur/2016/679/contents) (UK GDPR) works with the [Data Protection Act 2018](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2018/12/contents) to form the UK's data protection framework.  The UK GDPR sets out how people’s personal data is processed and kept safe, and the legal rights individuals have over their own data.

#### Who does it apply to?

The UK GDPR applies to ‘data controllers’ and ‘data processors’.

St Clare's is a data controller because we decide why and how data is processed.  We are responsible for making sure that 'data processors' who process personal data on our behalf (for example, payroll providers or school club providers) follow data protection law.  'Processing' is anything we do with personal data, including: collecting, recording, storing, and sharing. Destroying data also counts as processing.

For more information about how we process your data, please read our policies and privacy notices.
