ICO FINES TIKTOK FOR MISUSING CHILDREN'S DATA

Hi, it’s Deborah and Euzi The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has fined TikTok Information Technologies UK Limited and TikTok Inc (TikTok) £12.7m for breaching the UK's General Data Protection Regulation, including the failure to use children’s personal data lawfully. The ICO estimates that in 2020 TikTok allowed up to 1.4m UK children under 13 to use its platform, despite its rules not allowing children that age to create an account, and did not follow UK data protection laws stipulate that if organisations use personal data when offering information society services to children under 13 they must have consent from their parents or carers. The ICO also found that although TikTok should have been aware of the underage children using its platform, it failed to carry out adequate checks to identify and remove them… https://ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/media-centre/news-and-blogs/2023/04/ico-fines-tiktok-127-million-for-misusing-children-s-data/ #legaladvicefordivorcematters #legaladviceforlandlordandtenantmatters #legaladviceforemploymentmatters #mackenziefriend #helpingyoutopreparetoattendatcourt #affordablelawforyou #bespokelegaladvice

LINEKER & ANOR V REVENUE & CUSTOMS

Hi, it’s Deborah and Euzi In another high-profile First-tier Tax Tribunal (FTT) decision involving the application of the intermediary rules (IR35), HMRC contended that the rules applied to arrangements between former footballer and sports presenter, Gary Lineker, and two broadcasters, the BBC and BT Sport. Lineker provided his services to the BBC and BT Sport through his partnership. The FTT held that the IR35 rules did not apply because there was a ‘direct contract’ between Lineker and the broadcasters, rather than through Lineker’s partnership. The FTT confirmed that IR35 applies to general partnerships.

THE EQUALITY ACT 2010

Hi, it’s Deborah and Euzi The Equality Act 2010 legally protects people in the UK from discrimination and is often used by trans-activists to claim that trans-identifying males must always be treated as, or allowed into spaces exclusively for, women. It is also often used as a reason by companies when women complain. They say their hands are tied and that it’s illegal to exclude transgender people. They are simply wrong. They are either shamefully ignorant of the law or deliberately deciding not to use the legal options available to them… https://fairplayforwomen.com/equality-act-2010_womens-rights/ #legaladvicefordivorcematters #legaladviceforlandlordandtenantmatters #legaladviceforemploymentmatters #mackenziefriend #helpingyoutopreparetoattendatcourt #affordablelawforyou #bespokelegaladvice
