How do you verify your data
I use a triangulation method, for example I would compare the manual TS with the TS on our MRI system and also compare these to the lease.
What is the difference between GDPR and Data Protection act 2018
the DPA applies only to companies that control the processsing of data. GDPR extended the law to those companies that process personal data on behalf of controllers. For example, if a tenant gives our solicitors their details they would be liable under DPA but because the solicitors then pass me the lease the solicitor and Savills/me would be liable under GDPR
