We take the protection of personal data and the right to privacy extremely seriously. We regularly make clear the importance that all companies, especially the biggest global tech firms who process vast amounts of personal data, comply with the UK’s Data protection Act 2018.

As the Strategic Relationship Management Minister for Google, I have met with Google to discuss a range of matters.
