The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation on data protection and privacy for everyone in the EU. Any company that handles personal data of EU citizens or sells to EU residents must comply. Here&#8217;s some of what must be protected:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Biographical information &#8211;  name, date of birth, Social Security number, phone number, and email address<\/li>\n<li>Web data &#8211; location, IP address, cookie and RFID tags<\/li>\n<li>Workplace data &#8211; education, salary, tax information<\/li>\n<li>Private personal data &#8211;  health, genetics, medical history, racial data, religion, political opinions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If any of this is exposed in a data breach, the fine can reach up to 5% of your worldwide revenues PER INSTANCE! <\/p>\n<p>Luckily ownCloud users don&#8217;t have to worry about complicated regulations or fines with their file sharing. Thanks to on-premises installation and strict security features, you not only gain full control of your data, but a truly private cloud and fully compliant GDPR solution for your enterprise.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/270093727?color=e66f35&#038;byline=0\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<p>ownCloud is a personal cloud that runs on your own server.
