Global School Alliance (GSA) – GDPR Compliance Statement

What is the GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy in the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA). It also addresses the transfer of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas. The GDPR aims to give control to individuals over their personal data and simplify the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.
