Let the countdown begin: What does the GDPR mean for US companies?
May 25, 2017
An Exclusive SureCloud Ondemand Webcast
Exactly one year from the date of this webinar, the General Data Protection Regulation will take effect in the European Union. The GDPR applies to any organization that stores, processes or transfers the personal data of residents within the EU. It includes organizations located in and outside the EU. Non-compliance can result in fines of more than $20 million or 4% of worldwide revenues, whichever is greater.
A recent survey found an alarming percentage of US-based companies are planning to reduce their presence in Europe or exit the European Union altogether rather than deal with the GDPR. Instead of tossing up their hands over the GDPR and going home, strategic US companies can follow the defined steps and adopt software solutions that can bring certainty to these uncertain times. In fact, they see another company’s exit from the EU as a potential opportunity to gain share.
The good news is that you’re not too late in getting started to meet the GDPR deadline. But as the countdown begins, urgency escalates.
The time to act is now. Presenters include Paul Barks at NCC Group, Terry Blake, SureCloud EVP – North America, and Nick Rafferty, SureCloud COO
