The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), effective from May 25 2018, is a new European Union (“EU”) regulation that imposes more stringent requirements on companies that collect, store or process the personal data of EU residents. Any company that holds personal data of EU residents is accountable under the GDPR, regardless of the company’s physical location. The definition of “personal data” under the GDPR is very broad and effectively covers any information that may identify an individual.
In recognition of the new GDPR legislation take effect on 25 May 2018, iXensor has appointed an internal, cross-functional team and a dedicated Data Protection Officer to take necessary steps to ensure compliance with all applicable data privacy laws and is fully committed to protecting the personal data of its clients and reassure that our robust procedures and systems will continue to safeguard sensitive data.
Because of GDPR, policies and procedures in iXensor have been implemented and amended. These changes include, but are not limited to, policies relating to data processing, information security, transition, third party processors, data protection and breach notification. We also have made changes to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy; meanwhile, all iXensor employees have been required to complete additional data privacy and security training that is GDPR focused.
