David Poole wrote a nice summary of the GDPR regulations that come into force this spring in Europe. He covers a number of the sections, trying to provide a simple explanation of the potential issues from the perspective of a data engineer. That's likely the role most of us fill , and I think David does a good job of trying to note the items that he (and maybe you) need to be concerned about. If you want to read the full text, and you should, it's here. To me, this is a more sensible, easier to understand type of regulation. It's way better than SOX and most other regulations I've had to deal with, with a better view of balancing the idea that companies won't have all the answers, and might not choose the best technology but do need to make an effort. I don't think this will excuse just continuing to do business as you have, but it does read as though courts and authorities will have flexibility in their interpretation.
