GDPR-Meets-E-Discovery-Privacy-Comes-Out-On-Top.jpg
If you think the looming General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is just a European anomaly that won’t have much impact ‘across the pond’, think again. In the wake of the Facebook, Cambridge Analytica breach, the GDPR will trigger an overarching privacy framework that increases territorial scope of European data protections including a stronger “right to be forgotten” and stringent consent requirements.

Since we chose Mr Z as our new corporate mascot we have been asked a predictable question on more than a few occasions; Why a zebra? Well, first and foremost we chose the zebra because we like him.
