The 1998 Data Protection Act Principles:

The Act is based on a number of principles which act as an excellent guide towards ensuring compliance. The principles instruct Westminster School to ensure that:

1. Personal data shall be processed fairly and lawfully.
2. Personal data shall be held only for one or more specified and lawful purpose(s) and shall not be further processed in any manner incompatible with that purpose(s).
3. Personal data shall be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purpose for which it is processed.
4. Personal data shall be accurate and where necessary kept up to date.
5. Personal data processed for any purpose shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose.
6. Personal data shall be processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects under the Data Protection Act 1998.
7. Appropriate technical and organisational measures shall be taken against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of or damage to personal data.
8. Personal data shall not be transferred to a country or territory outside the European Economic Area unless that country or territory ensures an adequate level of protection for the rights and freedoms of data subjects in relation to the processing of personal data.
