The EU’s new data protection regulation, GDPR, takes effect on May 25, 2018. Both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations will have to comply with the new regulations or face significant fines. The GDPR will affect certain not-for-profit organizations that collect personal information from citizens of the EU.
Since donor, supporter, and volunteer data collection is vital to not-for-profit organizations, it is extremely important to have policies and procedures in place to ensure the organization is GDPR compliant. John DeMarzo, a member of our Cybersecurity team, shares an explanation of GDPR and how to comply in his article, “What companies need to know about General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)”
