Do you ever think about your data? Like who’s got it, and what they might do with it? Y’know, bank details, shoe size, places you visit, restaurants you like to eat at? Someone somewhere will have at least some of that information. Your bank, a shopping website, a travel company, your credit card supplier… In the EU, all that data, and more, is protected by a law called the GDPR.
The General Data Protection Regulation is designed to protect personal data within the European Union. It stops governments, companies, and even individuals from using your data in ways that you wouldn’t want them to. The GDPR also protects personal data when it leaves the EU. So, even if you’re outside Europe, but still do business there, it’ll still apply.
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:
• Recognize how the GDPR applies to you
• Explain the 7 principles of the GDPR
• Apply the GDPR regulations to spot data breaches
