The GDPR is a new data protection regulation coming into force on 25 May 2018. The regulation will apply to all members of the European Union (EU), including businesses in both public and private sectors that deal with personal data relating to EU citizens or residents.

The regulation means that those businesses operating within or outside of the EU who process personal data will need to comply with certain obligations and rights. The most important changes introduced by the GDPR involve expanding the definition of personal data, giving people more say over how their data can be used, strengthening security requirements for processing data and introducing tougher penalties for non-compliance.
