But the more data-driven marketing becomes, the more important the legal side of things becomes \u2013 because regulations such as the GDPR and growing awareness of data protection are making the handling of data more sensitive than ever.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"46\" data-end=\"441\">Our whitepaper provides a concise and practical overview of what is important for the legally compliant use of data in marketing in the UK \u2013 from consent and cookies to double opt-in in email marketing.
