If you work in the digital advertising industry, you must have heard about GDPR by now. So a very brief introduction should be sufficient.
GDPR is an acronym for “General Data Protection Regulations”, which is a law that was adopted by the European Parliament in the autumn of 2015 and which came into force on May 25, 2016. There was a 24 month implementation period, and as a result the enforcement of GDPR commences on May 25, 2018.
