General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The ‘General Data Protection Regulation’ (GDPR) is a regulation in the European Union that outlines a framework for how companies treat the personal data information of EU residents. It was established on May 25, 2018, replacing the DPD (Data Protection Directive, also known as Directive95/46/EC) which was the data protection regulation that was adopted in 1995.
