We are pleased to share that Centiun is now officially registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). This registration demonstrates our commitment to upholding the highest standards of data protection and privacy for our clients, partners, and colleagues.
In an increasingly data-driven world, organisations need to know that the partners they work with handle information responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with UK law. Registering with the ICO is an important step in reinforcing that trust.
What Does ICO Registration Mean?
The Information Commissioner’s Office is the UK’s independent authority responsible for upholding information rights and ensuring organisations comply with data protection legislation, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
By registering with the ICO, Centiun has formally:
- Declared our role as a data controller and/or data processor
- Committed to following recognised data protection principles
- Acknowledged our legal responsibilities around handling personal data
- Demonstrated transparency in how we manage, store and process information
It’s a clear signal that we take data protection seriously—and that we operate in line with national regulatory expectations.
Why This Matters for Our Clients
1. Confidence in Compliance
ICO registration shows that Centiun is meeting the legal obligations required of organisations that handle personal data. Clients can trust that their information—and the data we manage on their behalf—is treated responsibly and lawfully.
2. Transparency and Accountability
Being listed on the ICO’s public register provides clear evidence of our commitment to openness. It ensures we remain accountable for our data protection practices and encourages a culture of continuous improvement.
3. Reduced Risk for Shared Projects
Whether we are delivering Dynamics 365 solutions, implementing Power Platform apps, or supporting AI and automation initiatives, robust data protection is essential. ICO registration provides assurance that we operate with clear governance and well-defined processes.
4. Strengthened Public Sector Readiness
Many public sector organisations require suppliers to demonstrate compliance with data protection law. ICO registration adds to our growing list of credentials—alongside Cyber Essentials and CCS supplier status—reinforcing our suitability as a trusted public sector partner.
5. A Foundation for Responsible Innovation
As we support clients in adopting advanced technologies—AI, automation, analytics—we ensure innovation is delivered ethically, securely, and with respect for individuals’ data rights.
Our Commitment to Data Protection Excellence
ICO registration is more than a legal requirement—it’s a reflection of the values we uphold at Centiun. We recognise the importance of protecting personal data, and we have embedded strong processes, responsible handling practices, and clear policies across our organisation.
This milestone forms part of our broader commitment to:
- Secure digital transformation
- Transparent data handling
- Ethical use of AI and automation
- Trust-based partnerships with our clients
Looking Ahead
As Centiun continues to grow and expand our capabilities across the Microsoft ecosystem, public sector services, automation, and AI, our focus on security, compliance and data protection remains unwavering.
