Data Protection & Freedom of Information Office

Data Protection Register (DPR)

The University is required under Data Protection legislation to maintain a record of processing activities. This record must be made available to the Information Commissioner, on request.

The DPR enables the University to meet this obligation and to manage the challenges arising from the organisation’s size and the complexity of its information. In addition, it provides a repository for colleagues where associated documentation such as Privacy Notices, Records Retention Schedules, Legitimate Interests Assessments (LIAs), and Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) are stored and accessed.

The DPR platform also allows information asset owners (and their delegates) to monitor, create, maintain, and manage their returns in a much more intuitive and user-friendly environment. It supports version control of returns, creates an audit trail, and facilitates email contact between users and the DP&FOI Office team directly from the system. It also allows returns to be shared between colleagues and can be exported via email.
