GDPR:
The European Union (EU) has taken a firm stance on personal data protection and privacy. In response, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been created in an attempt to protect the fundamental right to privacy and protection to all citizens within the EU. Specifically, this new regulation affects any entity, which includes websites, that processes EU citizens’ personal data.
Who does the GDPR Apply to?
Ultimately, this applies to any citizen within the EU and any business that might process personal data for anyone within the EU. This doesn’t matter whether you are physically within the EU or not.
Some of our back-end systems are operated by responsible GDPR "Data Processors" and comply with their obligations under the GDPR. With respect to our customers, we are a "Data Controller", and if any of our customers is a citizen or a resident of a country in the European Union, then we ensure that we comply with our obligations as a data controller under the GDPR; namely, we ensure that we afford our Customers the rights identified in the GDPR regulation.
