The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive data privacy regulation enacted by the European Union (EU) in 2018 to protect the personal data of EU citizens and residents. GDPR imposes strict requirements on organizations that collect, process, and store personal data, regardless of their location, with the aim of enhancing individuals' control over their personal information and strengthening data protection measures. Key provisions of GDPR include the requirement for explicit consent for data processing, the right to access and rectify personal data, the obligation to notify authorities of data breaches, and the principle of data minimization and purpose limitation. Non-compliance with GDPR can result in significant fines, up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher, underscoring the importance for organizations to implement robust data protection practices and ensure compliance with GDPR regulations.
