EU Commission’s New GDPR Guidance Website
The European Commission has published a website to help parties comply with the new General Data Protection Regulation. The website, found at https://ec.europa.eu/commission/priorities/justice-and-fundamental-rights/data-protection/2018-reform-eu-data-protection-rules_en, contains extensive guidance for both data subjects and businesses. In a related development the Commission announced that it has earmarked 1.7 million euros to help fund data protection authorities and train data protection professionals, as well as another 2 million euros for member state-level information campaigns, particularly targeted at small businesses.
