Kilkenny LEADER Partnership (KLP) takes seriously the need for data protection. The Company understands the importance of the necessity given the high volume of sensitive data retained by the company. This date is comprised of information on KLP’s staff, board directors, members, participants on its various sub-committees, sub-contractors, project partners. This is in addition to the communities and clients with whom we work. KLP has therefore put in place detailed systems which aim to protect this data and assist the company to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which came into force on the 25th May 2018.
