As I am writing this post it is precisely 84 days, 14 hours, 20 minutes and 32 seconds to go to the enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you are a company offering goods and services or monitoring Data Subjects in the European Union, then you would be wise to prepare a Data Protection Impact Statement, if you haven't already done so already.

A breach of the GDPR can result in a fine of up to 4% of your global turnover from the preceding year or 20 Million Euros - whichever is the greater.

In the meantime, if you are a New Zealand company looking for advice on preparing a Data Protection Impact Statement, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
