What is GDPR?
Is the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation.
It unifies all EU member states´approaches to data regulation.
It protects EU citizens from organizations using their data irresponsibly and puts them in charge of what information is shared, where and how it’s shared.
IS NOT ONLY AN IT ISSUE, NOR ONLY A LEGAL ISSUE, IS A BUSINESS ISSUE
GDPR compliance requires cooperation between departments and functions which are not typically asked to collaborate.
