What is the GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is an update to current European privacy laws around data protection in the European Union (EU). The GDPR takes effect May 25, 2018 and seeks to provide consistent rules to protect data privacy for citizens of the EU.
How is One World Play Project meeting the GDPR requirements?
One World Play Project is committed to protecting the privacy and data of all our customers, partners and supporters.
In compliance with the new GDPR rules, we will:
– Seek explicit consent from our customers and supporters in the EU for use and storage of personal data for marketing and business transaction purposes.
– Provide a “cookie notice” on our site to alert visitors that cookie technology is being used on our website. Individuals can always choose to opt out of accepting cookies (or block cookies in general through their web browser).
– Be transparent about what data we collect and how we use it.
– Provide an avenue through which individuals can request that we update, delete or provide access to their data.
– These new guidelines will be followed on top of our existing privacy policy for all of our EU customers and supporters. For our EU audience, the new GDPR rules will take precedence over any previous policies.
