As the UK prepares to leave the EU, the UK government has advised organisations to consider data flows and ensure adequate safeguards for personal data transfers remain in place.

Due to this Brexit we are also changing our pricing and current packages. You can check latest changes to your existing package by visiting https://121webhosting.com/pricing  .   This will be in effect from on your next renewal on or after April 1st 2019  .   In the event of the UK leaving the EU without specific provision for personal data transfers, the .UK Registry-Registrar Agreement will be updated to insert the Schedule 3a on 29 March 2019.  

These clauses are based on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. They provide for the safeguarding of personal data transfers in the circumstances of transfers from the EU to the UK as required under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). They will only apply to .UK registrars who process personal data in the EU, and are intended to cover any transition period pending an EU ruling that the UK’s data protection laws are considered ‘adequate’ under EU law.

What does this mean for me? All registrars should continue to comply with the principles set out in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which the UK government has confirmed will still be applicable in the UK post Brexit. If you need further information on how Brexit affects data handling, please see the Information Commissioners’ Office website and guidance: Leaving the EU – six steps to take. Further information is available on Registrar Resources.

Thank you
