Achieving GDPR Compliance: A Guide

GDPR Compliance is the process of adhering to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which was passed on May 25, 2018. This regulation is designed to protect the privacy of EU citizens, by requiring organizations to protect the personal data and privacy of EU citizens for transactions that occur within EU member states. GDPR Compliance requires organizations to be transparent in how they collect, use, store, and transfer personal data, as well as how they respond to data breaches. Organizations must also provide individuals with the right to access, rectify, and delete their personal data. Additionally, organizations must obtain explicit consent from individuals before processing their personal data, and must notify individuals of any data breaches within 72 hours. GDPR Compliance also requires organizations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, such as encryption and pseudonymization. By adhering to GDPR regulations, organizations can ensure that they are protecting the privacy of EU citizens and complying with the law.
