The GDPR
To strengthen the individual’s rights to privacy, the European Union has established the General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR. To strengthen the existing data protection guidelines, the GDPR defines guidelines for companies that collect, store and process personal data. The European Union Regulation applies to companies that process personal data of European residents and has an enforcement deadline of May 2018.
Effective compliance takes data privacy and security requirements into account, no matter where your business is located, or what industry you’re a member of. At PriPost, we optimize our business and processes by adhering to the recommended standards and policies. That is why PriPost is able to offer you a robust and scalable structure for the secure processing of your data.
