GDPR Awareness

(Basic Understanding of GDPR)

The EU GDPR is the regulation that contains the most stringent rules on data protection in the world.

The GDPR was approved by the European Commission in 2016 and then became law in 2018, entering into force simultaneously in every country of the EU. After the GDPR came into force, all of the regulations we just mentioned and local laws on a country basis were replaced by the GDPR.
