If you run a business in the European Union, or you collect data from EU citizens, then you need to be aware of GDPR certification. This is a new set of regulations that went into effect on May 25th, 2018. The goal of this certification is to protect the privacy of EU citizens, and to give them more control over their personal data. If your business isn’t compliant with this certification, then you could face heavy fines.
What should I know about this?
So, what do you need to do to become GDPR certified? First, you’ll need to appoint a Data Protection Officer. This person will be responsible for ensuring that your business is compliant with GDPR regulations. They will also be the point of contact for any data protection issues that may arise.
Next, you’ll need to create a privacy policy that outlines how you collect, use, and protect the personal data of your customers or clients. This policy should be easily accessible to anyone who wants to read it. You should also make sure that your privacy policy is updated regularly, in order to stay compliant with the certification requirements.
