As more personal data is collected and stored by businesses, privacy concerns are increasing.
Regulatory bodies have established strict compliance requirements to safeguard individuals'
rights and prevent misuse of their information. These regulations mandate transparency from
businesses regarding the types of data they collect, how they use it, and who can access it.
Non-compliance can lead to substantial penalties and harm to a company's reputation.
Businesses must prioritize privacy and proactively comply with all relevant regulations.

| GDPR |
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) located in the European Union sets rules for how
organizations handle personal data. Organizations are obligated to ensure the confidentiality,
integrity, and availability of personal data. GDPR mandates that data be stored securely and
that individuals have the right to access, correct, and delete their data.

| Data Retention |
Businesses must comply with data retention regulations by securely removing personal data when
it is no longer necessary. Failure to comply may result in penalties and reputational damage.
Protecting the privacy rights of individuals is of utmost importance, and businesses must
ensure their data retention policies align with relevant regulations.
