GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council, dated 27th April 2016, on the protection of natural persons regarding the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data.
The purpose of GDPR is to harmonize the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals concerning processing activities and to ensure the free flow of personal data among EU member states.
GDPR applies to anyone who collects and processes personal data of EU citizens. It includes any company or institution located within the EU or outside the EU if it operates within the European market. (Source: GDPR Regulation)
The purpose of GDPR is to ensure that companies and institutions protect personal data of European citizens from a technical, personnel, and organizational standpoint. In the case of companies processing personal data on a large scale or government/public organizations, they must have a designated person responsible for ensuring compliance with the regulation.
Data subjects (individuals whose personal data is processed) have rights derived from the regulation that provide substantial protection against the misuse of their data. Companies cannot retain data without a clear purpose or consent of the data subject and cannot keep data indefinitely.
All information about how companies handle data of data subjects must be publicly accessible and written in a clear and understandable manner.
In case of non-compliance with the obligations of the regulation, companies may face severe fines up to €20 million or 4% of their total annual turnover.
In the area of personal data protection, it is a significant step that brings higher protection of personal data of individuals and unifies the approach to data protection across the entire European Union.
