At DealHub.io, nothing is more important than the success of our customers and the protection of their personal data. With customers around the world, DealHub adheres to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), that took effect on May 25, 2018.
The GDPR expands the privacy rights granted to European individuals and requires certain companies that process the personal data of European individuals to comply with a new set of regulations. In particular, the GDPR may apply to companies that process the personal data of European individuals and have a presence in the EU (e.g. offices or establishments) and to companies that do not have any presence in the EU but target the European market (e.g. by offering goods or services to the European market) or monitor the behavior of European individuals.
We’re here to help our customers in their efforts to comply with the GDPR.
In 2016, the European Union (EU) approved a new privacy regulation called the General Data Protection Regulation commonly known as the GDPR. It’s a mandatory ruling that applies to all companies that collect the data and information of EU individuals and meet certain territorial requirements. The GDPR is designed to strengthen the security and protection of personal data in the EU, as well as provide businesses with a structured framework on how to collect, process, use, and share personal data. Under the GDPR, the concept of “personal data” is very broad and covers almost any information relating to a specific individual.
All companies collecting or processing the personal data of EU individuals must have been GDPR compliant by May 25, 2018. DealHub is compliant to the extent required and will continue to comply on an ongoing basis.
Nothing in the GDPR prevents businesses from storing data outside of the EU, provided that the data processors adhere to the necessary regulations and protections. At DealHub, we host our service and store customer data on Microsoft Azure, with sites located in the US and European Union. Like DealHub, Microsoft Azure complies with the GDPR.
Additional information is available on the official GDPR website of the European Union.
