General Data Protection Regulation
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union law that aims to protect individuals' personal data and privacy. It gives people more control over their information, requiring consent for data collection and enabling them to access, correct, or delete their data. Companies must be transparent about how they use personal data and face penalties for non-compliance. GDPR applies to organizations operating in the EU or handling EU citizens' data, promoting accountability and security in data management. Its goal is to safeguard privacy in an increasingly digital world.
