The General Data Protection Regulation – or GDPR – is a European Union (EU) law that protects the rights of individuals with respect to their data. Adopted as an EU law in April 2016, organizations that hold data about any resident of the EU must be compliant by May 2018. With attention-grabbing fines of €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, GDPR commands attention at the highest levels.

This white paper provides a series of actions you can take to make the most of GDPR to both enhance your customer relationships and mitigate risk.
