The GDPR is a complex regulation that will require many changes in how you gather, use, and manage data. TMC has a long history of helping our customers comply with complex regulations, and when it comes to preparing for the GDPR, we are your partner on this journey.
“The GDPR imposes new rules on organizations established in the EU and on organizations – wherever they are located – that offer goods and services to people in the European Union (EU) or that monitor the behavior of people that takes place in the EU.”
Here are the main elements of the GDPR:
- Enhanced personal privacy rights – Increase data protection for individuals within the EU by ensuring an access to their personal data, ability to correct inaccuracies, have their personal data erased if requested, object to the processing of their personal data, and move their personal data;{{cta(‘a666468d-174c-48da-9f8f-4902e45100f7′,’justifyright’)}}
- Increased duty for protecting personal data – Strengthen accountability of companies and public organizations that use personal data, by increasing clarity of responsibility in ensuring compliance;
- Mandatory personal data breach reporting – companies are required to report personal data breaches to their supervisory authorities without undue delay, and generally no later than 72 hours; and
- Significant penalties for non-compliance – Strict sanctions, including heavy fines that are applicable whether an organization has intentionally or inadvertently failed to comply.
In order to comply to the GDPR, you might need to update personal privacy policies, implement or strengthen data protection controls and breach notification procedures, deploy highly transparent policies, and further invest in IT and training.
