About GDPR

The new GDPR was finally approved by the EU Parliament on 14 April 2016 and the enforcement date is 25 May 2018 – at which time those organizations in non-compliance may face heavy fines.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and was designed to harmonize data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens data privacy and to reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy. Key articles of the GDPR, as well as information on its business impact, can be found throughout this site:  https://www.eugdpr.org/
