Understanding GDPR

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the most comprehensive data privacy law in the world, affecting any organization that processes personal data of EU residents.

Enacted in May 2018, GDPR sets strict requirements for data collection, processing, storage, and transfer. Non-compliance can lead to fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher.

Beyond compliance, GDPR represents an opportunity to strengthen customer trust, improve data governance, and build a competitive advantage through responsible data practices.
