GDPR’s business implications

The internet has revolutionised the way we communicate and handle our everyday affairs, becoming an indispensable part of our daily lives. We send emails and share documents, we shop, we pay our bills.

Yet, all these actions compel us to share our personal data, often without giving it much thought. In addition, companies may collect information so that they can offer more targeted communication and in turn a better customer experience, whereas your social media posts are stored digitally. But where does all this information go?

As the number of data breaches and hacks are on the rise, a number of the aforementioned data could be exposed on the internet.
In comes the EU General Data Protection Regulation, most commonly referred to as GDPR. Since May 25th 2018, it is supported by the Data Protection Act of the Laws of Malta and covers both data protection and privacy for all individuals within the EU and the EEA. The regulation guarantees that data protection safeguards are ingrained into products and services as soon as they are developed and as a result, it is regarded as one of the most important changes in data privacy regulation, impacting both businesses and individuals.
