GDPR Compliance - DPO services

As the world continues the digital revolution, protecting citizens' personal information is becoming a key business requirement.

The General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union, with effect from 25 May 2018, provides a set of technical and organizational measures regarding the protection of Personal Data (PD).

Each business must have control over the collection of data, its processing and deletion, and be able to demonstrate its compliance under the requirements of the Regulation.
