Privacy notices: an updated code of practice 

All organisations that obtain or collect information about people (whether directly or indirectly), have a legal duty to process that information in a fair and transparent manner. The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has published a new code of practice on privacy notices that gives businesses practical guidance and advice on how to achieve this. 

The code includes:

• What to include in a privacy notice; 

• Where to deliver privacy information to individuals; 

• When to actively communicate privacy information.
