The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) imposes new data privacy obligations and restrictions on many U.S. companies that handle personal information about individuals located in the EU. The penalties for noncompliance with the GDPR are severe, and failure to maintain compliant data privacy and data security can hinder a U.S. company’s ability to do business internationally. As data privacy regulators enforce these new laws and individuals become more familiar with their new data privacy rights, businesses need to ensure that their vendor agreements and relationships do not expose them to GDPR liability for inadvertent noncompliance.
