Today marks the 2nd year anniversary of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) coming into force. Its aim was to harmonise data protection law in Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens data privacy, and to reshape the way organisations approach data privacy.
The EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC is being replaced with the EU's new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) which will enter into force on 25 May 2018 and the countdown to compliance has already begun.
