MOBILITY HOLDINGS, LIMITED STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE TO THE GDPR

WHAT IS GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation by which the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission intend to strengthen and unify data protection for all individuals within the European Union (EU). The main difference is that the regulation puts more onus on organizations for seeking and recording permission, being transparent about what, how and for how long data is stored and used. It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The GDPR aims primarily to give control back to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.

The General Data Protection Regulation came into effect on 25th May 2018 and affects all organizations that hold data on individuals. The UK government has confirmed that the UK’s decision to leave the EU will not affect the commencement of the GDPR.
