The final countdown to GDPR

There is less than a  year until General Data Protection Regulation comes into force, and non-compliance could lead to fines of up to 20 million euros or 4 per cent of global annual turnover. Shepherd and Wedderburn provide guidance on the next steps that businesses should now be considering.

28 July 2017

There is less than a  year until General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force. A failure to comply with this law could lead to fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover (whichever is higher).

As well as publishing our GDPR Compliance Timeline, Shepherd and Wedderburn has developed a toolkit designed to help clients of all sizes identify and implement the actions that they need to take to ensure that they are GDPR compliant.

Please contact Joanna Boag-Thomson, Ashley McLean or your usual Shepherd and Wedderburn contact for further information about the steps needed to ensure your organisation complies with the GDPR.
