GDPR
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union. It addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The GDPR aims primarily to give control to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU. The GDPR extends the scope of EU data protection law to all foreign companies processing data of EU residents.
GDPR requires organisations to implement reasonable data protection measures to protect the personal data of consumers and employees against data loss or exposure.
