What is the GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is a new legal framework that came into effect on the 25th of May 2018.
The GDPR’s focus is the protection, collection and management of personal data, (i.e. data about individuals) and it applies to all businesses who hold or otherwise process personal data (including sole traders) of people in EU Member States.
The GDPR has wide implications for every department of businesses worldwide. Watch our video summary now:
