The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to the use and storage of personal information of European citizens from 25 May 2018.
This regulation has an organization-wide impact and businesses worldwide will need to take action in order to comply with European law.
The new legal framework for this EU regulation makes a series of important changes to the requirements for managing and processing personal data using CRM and other technology. This will directly impact the use of Dynamics 365.
During the last 12 months, Preact has shared a series of resources to help CRM admins and teams involved in meeting the demands of this regulation.
