Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a law in the European Union that protects individuals' personal information. It gives people the right to know how their data is collected, used, and shared by businesses and organizations. Under GDPR, individuals can access their data, request corrections, or ask for it to be deleted. Companies must obtain consent to collect data and must safeguard it against unauthorized access. Violations can result in significant fines, emphasizing the importance of privacy and security in our digital age. GDPR aims to empower individuals and promote responsible data management.
