The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) went into effect on May 25th, 2018. This law not only focuses on consent, but also individuals' data and their rights. It's important for organizations to assess what changes need to be made in order to comply with GDPR (for controllers and processors of data).
The GDPR provides EU & UK residents with an effective way to control their personal information by ensuring the following rights:
- Right of access
- Right to rectification
- Right to erasure
- Right to restrict processing
- Right to data portability
- Right to object
- Right not to be subject to automated decision-making, including profiling
- Right to withdraw consent
- Right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority
