What is an injunction and is it relevant for privacy law?
- An injunction is an order made by the Information Commissioner that prevents an organisation from continuing the conduct that is in breach of privacy law.
- Non-compliance with an injunction order can have serious consequences and you may be held in contempt of court.
- If you or your organisation have been ordered to cease a particular action you must abide by that order.
- If you have any concerns you can use our free and anonymous Ask a Lawyer service to get information specific to your situation.
