The EU’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) affects the entire society, every company, organization and authority. GDPR provides users with more control of their personal information.
At Goobit/Goobit Exchange, we have long experience of storing and managing customer data and information as part of our business. It is important for us to make sure that your personal data is handled in a legal and open manner. We want you to know how we use your personal information and inform you about your rights.
GDPR is a new law that came into force throughout the EU on 25 May 2018. This regulation and a supplementary Swedish law, the Data Protection Act, supersede the Personal Data Act (PUL). The aim is to improve the protection of the individual in the processing of personal data and to create a uniform regulatory framework within the EU.
