Understanding and Applying the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
BizLibrary
Updated Feb 18, 2019The GDPR has been in force since May 2018 as an EU-wide set of regulations and must be applied. Companies without principal office in EU countries, but who collect and compute personal data from EU citizens, are required to follow the GDPR rules. Violations are punishable up to $20 million or 4% of sales. Since the penalties for data protection violations have been drastically increased, a foundational understanding of the GDPR is necessary in order to prevent serious financial damage, not to mention a potential loss of your company’s reputation. This course serves to familiarize anyone who processes or controls data with the rules and regulations of the GDPR. It does not serve to train data protection officers and does not replace legal advice.
