The principles are based on three key concepts:
Purpose – personal data must only be held for a clear purpose or purposes
Fairness – personal data must only be processed for legitimate purposes
Transparency – data subjects must be given certain basic information about the personal data held about them
The Eight Principles:
1. Personal data shall be processed fairly and lawfully and, in particular, shall not be processed unless-

(a) at least one of the conditions in Schedule 2 is met, and
(b) in the case of sensitive personal data, at least one of the conditions in Schedule 3 is also met.
2. Personal data shall be obtained only for one or more specified and lawful purposes, and shall not be further processed in any manner incompatible with that purpose or those purposes.

3. Personal data shall be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purpose or purposes for which they are processed.

4. Personal data shall be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date.

5. Personal data processed for any purpose or purposes shall not be kept for longer than is necessary for that purpose or those purposes.

6. Personal data shall be processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects under this Act.

7. Appropriate technical and organisational measures shall be taken against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data.

8. Personal data shall not be transferred to a country or territory outside the European Economic Area unless that country or territory ensures an adequate level of protection for the rights and freedoms of data subjects in relation to the processing of personal data.

I got this information from northumbria

My first website

It's 20 to 1 in the morning and that's me just finished my website that i think is going to be assessed. It took me a little bit of practice but that's me got the hang of the basics of it now and i can now go and work on something else.
Since coming back from the Christmas break everything has been full throttle, assessment after assessment but I'm getting into the swing of things now, and i have eventually sussed out how to use the student portal, which is handy.

Merry Christmas???

Why is it that at every Christmas and New Year time, for the last few years there has been some kind of disaster, for example the tsunami or this years riots in a hospital fire or just some poor person getting shot. Lets just hope that not such bad things happen next year but thats maybe wishful thinking.
