General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR

In May 2018 Europe upgrades to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the biggest overhaul of data protection and privacy since 1995.

If you do business in or with Europe, GDPR applies to you, even if you are not located within Europe. It will also apply to UK businesses trading within Europe regardless of Brexit. The rules apply to the data you collect and use within your business as well as the data you collect and use in your web sites and apps.
