General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) stories - Page 12

information to potential bad actors, the European Union promulgated the General Data Protection
Regulation in 2016. The regulation is part of European Union privacy law and human rights laws and

greater control over their personal information while simplifying regulatory compliance for international
business.
