The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union law designed to protect personal data and privacy. It regulates how organizations collect, store, process, and share personal information. GDPR applies to any organization that handles the data of EU citizens, regardless of where the organization is located.
GDPR gives individuals more control over their personal data, including the right to access, correct, and delete their information. Organizations must be transparent about how data is used and must implement strong security measures to prevent data breaches. Failure to comply with GDPR can result in significant fines and legal consequences.
