You may have been hearing about GDPR, the acronym for the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, which went into effect on May 25th. This regulation establishes rules for the protection of personal data for individuals that are located within the European Union and the European Economic Area.

The GDPR imposes requirements on companies, including those in the United States, that collect or use personal data gathered from individuals located within Europe.

At Communica, we’ve been working hard to establish processes, policies and agreements to comply—and help our clients comply—with GDPR requirements. If you haven’t already, you may soon receive notices from us about GDPR or requests to acknowledge changes to our websites, services, or terms that are required by GDPR. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to your Communica team for more information.

We are grateful for your support in this matter and take your needs for data privacy and security seriously.
