Last week, on 25 May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect, bringing significant changes to data protection and privacy laws in the European Union. At Fix My Digital, we believe it is crucial to communicate the importance of GDPR in relation to online reputation management and the protection of your personal data.
GDPR has been designed to give individuals more control over their personal information and ensure that businesses handle data in a responsible and transparent manner. As an online reputation management company, we fully endorse the principles set forth by GDPR and are committed to upholding the highest standards of data privacy and security.
Here’s why GDPR is essential for your online reputation management
Enhanced Data Protection
GDPR requires businesses to implement robust data protection measures to safeguard personal data from unauthorized access, breaches, or misuse. At Fix My Digital, we have implemented stringent security protocols and privacy practices to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of your information.
Transparent Data Practices
GDPR emphasizes transparency in how businesses handle personal data. We believe in maintaining clear and concise communication with our customers regarding the collection, processing, and storage of their personal information. Our privacy policy outlines the purpose, lawful basis, and retention period for the data we collect, ensuring transparency in our data practices.
Consent Management
GDPR places a strong emphasis on obtaining explicit consent from individuals for the collection and processing of their personal data. At Fix My Digital, we prioritize your consent and seek it before utilizing your data for any online reputation management activities. We provide clear options for you to give or withdraw your consent, empowering you to have control over your personal information.
Data Subject Rights
GDPR grants individuals several rights concerning their personal data, including the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, and object to the processing of their data. We fully support these rights and have implemented processes to facilitate your exercise of these rights. If you have any questions or wish to exercise your rights, our dedicated support team is here to assist you.
Trust and Accountability
GDPR fosters a culture of trust and accountability by encouraging businesses to adopt responsible data practices. At Fix My Digital, we take our obligations seriously and are committed to being accountable for the personal data we handle. We continuously review and update our policies, procedures, and technical measures to ensure compliance with GDPR and protect your privacy.
At Fix My Digital, we understand the importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers. GDPR aligns with our core values, enabling us to deliver the highest standards of data privacy and security while providing effective online reputation management solutions.
