GDPR-Impacts on Business

 The GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation.

This law has been applied to all local privacy laws throughout the EU and EEA. It will work for all companies that sell and maintain personal information about European citizens, including companies on other continents.

According to the GDPR, personal data is any personal information such as name, photo, email address, bank details, updates to social networking sites, location information, medical information or computer IP address.


There is no difference between personal and individual data in their private, public or professional fields - the individual is that person.


GDPR - Results

 The GDPR applies to all businesses and organizations established in the EU, whether data processing takes place in the EU or not. Even non-EU organizations will be subject to the GDPR. If your business provides goods and / or services to citizens in the EU, then it is under the GDPR.

All organizations and companies dealing with personal data must appoint a data protection officer or data controller in charge of GDPR compliance.

There are severe fines for those companies and organizations that do not comply with GDPR fines of up to 4% of the world's annual revenue or 20 million Euros, whichever is greater.

Impact on vendors

These registrations were previously used to help better customers, to improve customer meetings, timely sales of salespeople to prevent customer wastage, high quality service and information from sales and production of business to customers, customer transfer of new sales staff and marketing department. The business was interested in the details of B2B suppliers related to obtaining better procurement agreements. This information has provided significant benefits to the business and has been maintained in the form of a CRM system which, due to the new GDPR regulation, has met strict rules and requirements for data deletion after certain time limits.

Impact on traders

A B2B trader in a business pharmacy line was not particularly aware of the new GDPR law. For businesses that have previously registered in their database system - equivalent to the CRM system - practices, preferences and needs of their users and customers, which help them provide better users and customers, protect customer complaints at the customer service table during the sales process. Especially the elderly, people with disabilities and people with certain diseases, and the special medical needs of its value information registered in the pharmacy.

  1. GDPR regulation has created a great impact on the customers, as per GDPR the businesses gathering personal data must provide a withdraw consent to those customers providing data, this consent process is valid for the purpose mentioned while getting the consent. Any deviation in the process of using data, a revised consent is mandate before processing the activities.
    Earlier by exchanging visiting cards, the personal data, such as email id phone number and other details could be gathered and added in the mailing list of the company. But with GDPR this traditional way will no longer be possible. I think with strict GDPR guidance individuals will have more power over their rights to accept and deny sharing personal data.

  2. In recent years, companies have been building complex data collection, storage, and analysis systems that allow them to drive all marketing campaigns. We are talking about digital analytics tools, advertising management, Email Marketing ... all of them continuously use data from users. Can it be considered personal data? Does the GDPR apply here? Adjusting to this new regulation will not be easy.

    In reality, the key is to understand how data is being collected, where it is being stored, and who is using it. If we control its management at all times, we will be adequately adapting to the GDPR.
    Thank you for your insights.

  3. Also the new accountability principle, which holds retailers responsible for proactively complying with—and showing compliance with—the legislation, differs from those of its predecessor. The most significant changes are in scope and enforcement—the GDPR aims to implement individuals' extended data privacy rights in the EU, which necessitates sufficient protection from companies both within and outside the EU.

    GDPR enforcement requirements will vary by store, depending on how well their business practices support the EU's extended personal data privacy rights. Retailers, especially those with a variety of customer touchpoints across channels and franchises, may find implementing an effective GDPR program to be particularly difficult. These numerous touch points include everything from point-of-sale to e-commerce and call centers, as well as mobile apps, kiosks, ERP systems, and email.

    Retailers must take a comprehensive approach to data privacy governance in order to comply with GDPR. Keep in mind that the GDPR has been established with the understanding that data privacy will continue to evolve and that the enforcement of personal data privacy rights will need to change accordingly.
