Must a UK organisation pay a fee to the Information Commissioner?
Every controller processing personal data must pay the annual data protection fee unless an exemption applies. The fee has three tiers set by turnover and staff numbers, and non-payment can lead to a fixed monetary penalty from the Information Commissioner. Processors that are not also controllers are outside the charge.
