GDPR - New EU data protections 5/28 - Anyone else freaking out?

Eileen Chow
Hello wonderful Act-On community!

Is anyone impacted by GDPR going into effect 5/28 and what steps have you/are you taking? Unfortunately this came late onto my radar and we have only begun researching it now.

I have read a few great resources passing along here, and I'm going to attend a local Boston meetup to hear what the Chief Privacy Officer at IBM has to say. Other than that, gearing up for company-wide discussion on how it impacts marketing, customer success, product, etc. 

Any advice appreciated -

    Hi Eileen,

    Firstly, welcome to the community!

    You are not alone in wondering about GDPR and the implications associated with it. We've actually been running a number of webinars ourselves on the topic to help customers to understand more about it and what they need to consider. Take a look at the dedicated GDPR section of our website to keep up to date on the latest topics surrounding it.

    In addition to this, we have a number of customers based over here in EMEA that are in the exact same position as you so hopefully they will be along to post up their thoughts too.
