The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new piece of privacy legislation enacted by the European Union. It represents a significant change in how personal (IP Addresses, Emails, Names) and sensitive (religion, ethnic origin, health, orientation) data is handled by companies.
We take all security reports seriously. Please email our security contact (information listed above) with any information you have regarding any potential data breaches, vulnerabilities or concerns.
While it remains to be seen if the EU has the legislative power to levy fines and enforcement against organizations around the globe, GDPR compliance is being sought by non EU companies for a variety of reasons.
