GDPR checklist for Shopify Stores

Introduction



The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the toughest privacy and security law in the world, yet few Shopify Stores are completely compliant with its statutes.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is among the world’s toughest data protection laws. Under the GDPR, the EU’s data protection authorities can impose fines of up to up to €20 million (roughly $20,372,000), or 4% of worldwide turnover for the preceding financial year – whichever is higher.
