Lawful Digital Marketing and Consent 25 March 2025 - 9:30am-1pm

This half-day course sets out and explains the regulatory framework for conducting lawful marketing via electronic means. Participants will not only gain knowledge of key laws operating in this sphere – the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations and the UK General Data Protection Regulations – but will also understand their relationship in a marketing context. The course addresses a knowledge gap when consent is needed to lawfully send marketing messages to individuals and how to demonstrate compliance when obtaining valid consent (including for cookies). This is achieved with accessible explanations of the rules, real-life examples and case studies.

This course will benefit participants of all seniority, who work in creative or IT roles, along with those who have more compliance-focused positions. It is suitable for attendees of all types of organisations because the content is designed to address a key business practice employed by all (marketing). This is an intermediate course for professionals who already have a good knowledge of key UK GDPR elements, principles, and individual rights.
