Who We Are
We maintain regular contact with UK and foreign data protection organizations, data protection activists and academics. We also conduct opinion polls among internet users on topics relevant to our cause. All insights we gain from these activities are included in our decision-making processes on research, investigation and redress.
Please feel free to contact us at hello@dataprotectionfoundation.org if you have any questions or would like to bring something to our attention.
