General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is currently an important topic for the consultants at Loomans & Matz AG, based in Mainz. With this regulation, the European Union introduced a homogeneous data and privacy law that will be compulsory for European companies from May 2018 onwards. Fulfilling the GDPR’s legal requirements is quite a challenge for many companies – even for those operating in countries with already strict laws like Germany.
