European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR): A Path Towards Records/Information Management Compliance
MARA Guest Lecture

The European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect on May 25, 2018. The regulation is designed to protect the privacy rights and freedoms of individuals residing in the EU. However, the regulation is being deemed the new “gold standard” for privacy protection globally. Under GDPR, individuals have specific data subject rights relating to data erasure/deletion and organizations have defined data retention and destruction responsibilities. In this session, Lisa will introduce attendees to GDPR and share how to facilitate a path towards records/information management compliance under the regulation.
