REGULATION

GDPR

The European Union framework governing the processing and protection of personal data.

DEFINITION

GDPR definition

The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, governs how personal data is processed and protected in the European Union and European Economic Area. It sets principles, individual rights and duties for controllers and processors. The legal obligations belong to the client; Cinderpath builds and operates technical controls that can support compliance work.

WHY IT MATTERS NOW

The current operating pressure

Regulatory fact, European Commission: GDPR has applied since 25 May 2018. Consent records, access controls, retention rules and audit evidence still need to match the real movement of personal data through current systems.
