Before we get to the GDPR Compliance Statement let us get you some details on what the GDPR is good for. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, see Wikipedia for details) for the EU is meant to give the user of any website which accepts visitors from the EU protection against the collection of personal data. This means for the entity who runs the website to provide information about how data is collected, stored, and processed (see our Privacy Policy). And it also forces that entity to provide means of deleting personal information if the user is requesting it unless there are laws in place which restrict those actions.
The following is our GDPR Compliance Statement:
Introduction
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) came into force across the European Union on 25th May 2018 and brought with it the most significant changes to data protection law in two decades. Based on privacy by design and taking a risk-based approach, the GDPR has been designed to meet the requirements of the digital age.
The 21st Century brings with it broader use of technology, new definitions of what constitutes personal data, and a vast increase in cross-border processing. The new Regulation aims to standardize data protection laws and processing across the EU; affording individuals stronger, more consistent rights to access and control their personal information.
Our Commitment
We at SoftAndHardware.com are committed to ensuring the security and protection of the personal information that we process and to provide a compliant and consistent approach to data protection. We recognize our obligations in updating and expanding our measures of securing this website to meet the demands of the GDPR.
We are dedicated to safeguarding the personal information under our remit and in developing a data protection regime that is effective, fit for purpose, and demonstrates an understanding of, and appreciation for the new Regulation.
