• The European Union General Data Protection Regulation (the GDPR) contains new data protection requirements that will apply from 25 May 2018.
  
  Australian businesses of any size may need to comply if they have an establishment in the EU, if they offer goods and services in the EU, or if they monitor the behaviour of individuals in the EU.
  
  The GDPR and the Australian Privacy Act 1988 share many common requirements, including to:
  
  
• implement a privacy by design approach to compliance
• be able to demonstrate compliance with privacy principles and obligations
• adopt transparent information handling practices.
• There are also some notable differences, including certain rights of individuals (such as the ‘right to be forgotten’) which do not have an equivalent right under the Privacy Act.

Australian businesses should determine whether they need to comply with the GDPR and if so, take steps now to ensure their personal data handling practices comply with the GDPR and the  before commencement.
