The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), EU’s new framework for data protection will come into full force on 25 May 2018 and will overhaul the way the companies handle and process personal data. The GDPR applies to the personal data of a natural person who is in EU. 

The EU GDPR replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and is designed to standardize 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 protection and cyber security. 

As a regulation, the GDPR will directly affect member states of the EU without the need for implementing legislation. 

GDPR also sets new standards for B2C relationships. It is a complex regulation that may require significant change in how you collect, process and manage data from people all over the world. Considering the significant legal responsibilities, it may take time to bring current data processes in line with GDPR. There’s no time to wait.
