Oh boy, bureaucratic red tape.... Brexit right? There is a UK phone number on epm's website, and from what I've pulled up there's a transition period for the UK leaving the EU to allow for preparation of the post Brexit rules. So epm is crossing t's and dotting i's by following GDPR compliance (EU regulation) prior to transition? https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-32810887

What is the 'transition' period?
It refers to a period of time after 29 March, 2019, to 31 December, 2020, to get everything in place and allow businesses and others to prepare for the moment when the new post-Brexit rules between the UK and the EU begin. It also allows more time for the details of the new relationship to be fully hammered out. Free movement will continue during the transition period, as the EU wanted. The UK will be able to strike its own trade deals - although they won't be able to come into force until 1 January 2021. This transition period is currently only due to happen if the UK and the EU agree a Brexit deal.
