On 25 May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) came into effect in the European Union, replacing the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC. The GDPR significantly increases the rights of individuals in relation to the protection of their personal data. It also increases the responsibilities of organizations that control and process personal data, and substantially increases the penalties for non-compliance.
We have always appreciated the importance of data privacy to both our clients and to individual data subjects. Information security and data privacy have been a key focus of ours.
