Get the scoop on the new GDPR law (Hint! It probably affects you!)

by | May 2, 2018 | Blog | 4 comments

Been hearing the buzz that there’s an important law that goes into effect on May 25, 2018?

It’s called the GDPR and it raises the bar on privacy laws.

The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a new privacy law that affects ALL businesses with clients or list members in the European Union.

(The EU is stricter about privacy than the US – and this law makes it even more so.)

This means that it applies to you if you have anyone who is a client or on your list from the EU. In case you need a refresher, here are the 28 countries in the EU:

Germany
Great Britain – but they will leave the EU in March 2019 due to BREXIT
France
Italy
Spain
Poland
Romania
Netherlands
Belgium
Greece
Czech Republic
Portugal
Sweden
Hungary
Austria
Bulgaria
Denmark
Finland
Slovakia
Ireland
Croatia
Lithuania
Slovenia
Latvia
Estonia
Cyprus
Luxembourg
Malta

AND – get this! It doesn’t matter if they are purchasing something from you or if you are only collecting their email… the law still applies to you!

Please don’t fret or worry. We want you to know what steps to take before May 25th and how you can get them done quickly.

My legal wonder twin Gena Shingle Jaffe and I are holding a free GDPR Webinar on Tuesday, May 15 at 2 pm ET – and you’re invited!

 

 

We want to love you up so we’ll be giving an overview of the new GDPR law – and you’ll receive a free GDPR Checklist for your business!

During this webinar we’re going to walk you through:

  • What you need to know about the GDPR
  • How it affects your business
  • How to get your updated Privacy Policy in place by May 25 (or sooner!)

You’ll get our free GDPR Checklist so you know exactly what steps you need to take.

You’ll also hear how to get an updated Privacy Policy template based on the new GDPR law that you can put in place before May 25th.

My whole goal is to make understanding new laws easy!! (And, of course, delivered with Legal Love.)
