General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA). It came into effect on May 25, 2018, and has fundamentally transformed how businesses handle personal data. The regulation outlines certain obligations that organizations must follow, which limit how personal data can be used. Companies that do not follow these new norms face severe fines, potentially up to €20 million or 4% of annual global revenue, depending on the severity and circumstances of the violation. GDPR compliance is not optional.
