# General Data Protection Regulation

Privacy by Design: Data protection must be included into every stage of data processing, from system design to usage.

Accountability and governance: Companies must set up and keep records of their data processing activities in order to demonstrate compliance with GDPR guidelines.

Penalties: Non-compliance with the GDPR carries hefty fines. A fine for an organisation may not exceed 4% of its annual global revenue or €20 million, whichever is higher.

Cross-Border Data Transfers: The legislation establishes a framework for sending personal information outside of the EU while maintaining the same level of data security.

Organisations operating across several EU nations can work with a single supervisory authority, streamlining the regulatory procedure.
