The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union. It addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. The GDPR aims primarily to give control back to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU. This will come into force on 25th May 2018.

This law is applicable to any and all website and forum owners who may have members who reside within the EU with various degrees of uncertainty on what needs to be done to maintain compliance.
