GDPR Compliance: Protecting Personal Data
Privacy Act such as GDPRThe General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a privacy act that was implemented by the European Union (EU) in May 2018. It is designed to protect the personal data of EU citizens and residents by regulating how organizations collect, process, and store their data. The GDPR applies to all organizations that process the personal data of EU citizens and residents, regardless of where the organization is located. It also applies to organizations that offer goods or services to EU citizens and residents, even if they do not process their data. The GDPR gives individuals more control over their personal data by requiring organizations to obtain their consent before collecting and processing their data. It also gives individuals the right to access, correct, and delete their data, as well as the right to object to its processing. Organizations that fail to comply with the GDPR can face significant fines of up to �20 million or 4% of their global annual revenue, whichever is higher. Steps to comply with GDPR
