GDPR
The EU's comprehensive data protection and privacy regulation.
Overview
GDPR governs the collection, processing, and storage of personal data belonging to EU residents, regardless of where the processing organization is located. It emphasizes data minimization, purpose limitation, and individual rights (access, erasure, portability), backed by significant financial penalties for non-compliance.
Key Requirements
- Records of Processing Activities (RoPA)
- Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for high-risk processing
- Data subject rights fulfillment processes
- Appropriate technical and organizational security measures
Who Needs This
- • Any organization processing personal data of EU residents
- • SaaS platforms with EU customers or users
- • Organizations transferring personal data outside the EU
Typical Timeline
8-12 weeks for initial compliance program establishment
