The European Union's General Data Protection Requirement, also known as GDPR, can be tricky to navigate for businesses. It takes an expert in GDPR policy implementation to make recommendations tailored to your business. Failure to comply with GDPR regulations can result in steep penalties — either over $20 million or four percent of a company's revenue — whichever is higher. That could shake a small to midsize business to its core! For these reasons, it's important to enlist the help of an experienced GDPR compliance consulting service, like Vector Choice. Learn more about GDPR compliance, why it's important, and our stepped approach for GDPR compliance consulting services.
What Does it Mean to be GDPR Compliant?
Almost every aspect of our lives revolve around data. From social media companies to retailers, governments, and banks — almost every service we use involves the collection and analysis of personal data. If your business uses and stores data, you'll want to be aware of GDPR compliance.
The European Union GDPR regulation forces businesses to protect their customer data you store or communicate. This regulation is a new set of rules designed to give EU citizens more control over their personal data. Organizations must prove and ensure that the data they collect is gathered legally nad under strict conditions.
Who Does GDPR Apply To?
GDPR applies to any organization operating within the European Union, as well as any organization outside of the European Union which offer goods or services to customers or businesses in the European Union.

Aside from avoiding hefty fines from the European Union, there are many benefits to being GDPR compliant. With our GDPR compliance consulting services, you will increase customer trust and organizational reputation, develop an effective incident response plan, mitigate data breaches, and increase the protection of your customer's data.
