GDPR compliance and your website

The GDPR became law on May 25th, 2018

In (very) short. GDPR states that if a website collects, store or use any data related to an EU citizen. You must comply with the following:

Tell the user: who you are, why you collect the data, for how long and who receives it.
Get clear concent from users, before collecting any data
Let users access their data, and take it with them
Let users delete their data
Let users know if data breaches occur

See this nice infographic from the European Commission

Not following these guidelines will eventually result in a fine. Up to EUR 20 million or 4% of your annual turnover – so quite a bit of money.
