What is the GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in effect since May 2018, is the major data protection regulation in the European Union. It is important because it affects any company owning or processing personal data of people in the European Union and gives these people certain rights with respect to their personal data. For more details, see the European Commission’s Data Protection website.
