There has been an abundance of content flying about the internet about the new GDPR regulations coming into force on 25th May 2018. It is a hot subject and one that companies need to be aware of.
An easy (and irresponsible approach) would be to put the whole subject to the bottom of your ‘to do list’ and hope for the best.

Content Marketing Academy
The content marketing academy works with business people, entrepreneurs and marketers, to help master the skills required to grow your audience and build your business for the future.
It’s not just a membership; it is a learning community full of like-minded individuals with an abundance of expertise that would blow your socks off.
The majority of the information learned, surrounding GDPR (and a trillion other topics) came from the ‘squad’.
“For every question that’s asked in the CMA, someone has an answer. They do not have to be an expert – they just need to know just a little more than you do about that specific area or topic.
Someone provides the scaffolding for you, so you can learn, achieve, and go on to do it yourself – the next thing you know you’re teaching it to someone else!” – Chris Marr
