General Data Protection Regulations

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a legal requirement in the UK and across the European Union. It combines many current data sharing requirements into a single legislation and allows persons to have more control over how their personal data is stored and distributed. Please find more information on the International Commissioners Office site and their Guide To GDPR.

Data controllers, such as DyeMyHair (Arcadant B.V.), must now prove their awareness of the importance of protecting personally identifiable data. Persons providing their data to processors must be made aware of how their data is being used and stored before the information is disclosed. GDPR requires data processors such as DyeMyHair to give absolute clarity on how information is being stored and how data is used.

Our Commitment to GDPR Responsibilities

We are committed to being GDPR compliant and have many processes in place to ensure that our customers’ data is dealt with in a safe and proper manner.
