What is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)?
If you’re wondering what GDPR is (and who it applies to), you’re not alone. This page is designed to help you understand exactly how it will affect you. As you read, you’ll find all of the resources Terryberry has created and everything you need to understand GDPR. Let’s start with a definition.
General Data Protection Regulation: A European regulation taking effect May 25, 2018, affecting the protection of data by “controllers,” those who determine the means and purposes of data processing and “processors,” those who handle data on behalf of controllers.
Many of Terryberry’s customers will fall into the “controller” category as they are collecting and using personal data about their employees. And since Terryberry falls under the “processor” category, we are required by the GDPR to treat our customers’ data as if it were our own.
Our privacy team has analyzed the requirements of the GDPR and has ensured our policies, procedures, contracts and platform features align with the GDPR.
We have also undergone a full readiness assessment from an independent third party of our privacy controls against the articles of GDPR. The report for this assessment is available under NDA.
