You may have heard about the new General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) that comes into effect May 25, 2018.
What is GDPR?
GDPR is short for the General Data Protection Regulation that goes into effect on May 25, 2018. It was passed by the European lawmakers to create a harmonized data privacy law across all the EU member states.
Its purpose is to:
– support privacy as a fundamental human right;
– require companies that handle personal data to be accountable for managing
that data appropriately; and
– give individuals rights over how their personal data is processed or
otherwise used.
