The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will come into
effect on May 25, 2018. It will attempt to standardize data
protection law throughout the European Union. The GDPR will not be
fully harmonized since the law has more than 70 opening clauses
that will leave room for the EU Member States' legislators to
implement (stricter, less strict, or more detailed) rules. Reed
Smith, along with partner law firms from every EU Member State, has
drafted an overview of each Member State's local GDPR laws.
