For a more light hearted approach to privacy issues, read Martin's old Data Protector blog

An updated version of my book "How to be a Decent DPO: letters to aspiring privacy pros" - first published in November 2021 and revised in September 2026 - is now available.

Buy one for the boss!                                   

Great value at just £8.99

See also "How do I carry out a data protection audit?” (Kindle edition)  published in July 2014.

Brilliant value at just £5.99.

"Concise, legible and extremely well researched. A vital guide in an ever changing business world"
