Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is a legal contract between the data controller and data processor guaranteeing that the data processor will appropriately handle the data provided by the data controller under the rules of GDPR. This states the liabilities and obligations of both the data controller and data processor, the purpose and the extent of data processing, and the relationship between the aforementioned parties.
The main purpose of GDPR is to protect the rights and freedoms of EU residents and to give them more control over their personal data, no matter where personal data is collected or processed.
One of the main requirements to make a website GDPR compliant is to tackle the issue of consent. Information cannot be collected and processed unless consent has been obtained.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the toughest privacy and security law in the world. Though it was drafted and passed by the European Union (EU), it imposes obligations onto organizations anywhere, so long as they target or collect data related to people in the EU.
