Article 3 of the GDPR says that if you collect personal data or behavioral information from someone in an EU country, your company is subject to the requirements of the GDPR

At first glance, the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) can look like a mountain to climb. The GDPR raise issues with how you secure the information you keep about your clients and customers, and also your staff members.

The GDPR is a huge topic that has worldwide implications, and this practical guide isn’t designed to give you a complete overview of all your requirements. There are plenty of data protection consultants doing that.

What this guide can do for you though, is show you what to do with your database of contacts – whether that is the contacts you already have in your marketing list, new contacts you meet when networking, or when you receive requests to unsubscribe from your communications or to be deleted completely, often called “the right to be forgotten”.
