Why is it so important?
The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) officially came into effect on 25 May 2018, and since then, compliance with GDPR has been a requirement for every company whose clients are private individuals across the European Union. In practice, this means that every company must ensure their website complies with GDPR, as any individual can access it. Non-compliance with GDPR can result in various consequences, such as hefty fines. By ensuring your site complies with GDPR, consumers are more aware of how their personal data is processed and what rights they have in this regard.
