GDPR Compliance - EU Cookies Law Banner

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) aims to protect the personal data of European Union (EU) citizens and applies to any organization doing business with EU data subjects. Simply put, if you do business in the EU, then the GDPR will apply. It establishes strict breach disclosure requirements, and when enforcement begins on May 25th, 2018, will impose stiff fines for refused organizations.
