GDPR POLICY

We Are GDPR Compliant

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) becomes law on May 25th, 2018.
How & Why is this important?

The GDPR was created to regulate how businesses use data, ensuring it’s the same across the entire EU. Although it will apply to smaller businesses as well as large corporations, recent high-profile scandals have demonstrated how big organisation’s will have to comply to a single set of rules.

The main implications of contravention of the GDPR for businesses, could be financial penalties.

Does this affect you?

Any business that processes an EU Data Subject’s data, whether you are in the EU or outside of it, will be subject to the regulation and will have to abide by the rules it lays out for processing data.
