General Data Protection Regulation | Estateplanning

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a landmark legislation that sets a new standard for data protection in the European Union, giving individuals control over their personal data and imposing strict obligations on organizations that collect and process such data. The GDPR was implemented in 2018 and has had a significant impact on the way companies like Google, Facebook, and Amazon handle personal data. Experts like Max Schrems and Johnny Ryan have been instrumental in shaping the conversation around data protection and the GDPR.
