DPL is required for GDPR compliance.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation in the European Union (EU) that became effective on May 25, 2018. The GDPR regulates the processing of personal data by controllers and processors within the EU.

Under the GDPR, personal data must be:
1. Legitimate and necessary for the purposes for which it is being processed.
2. Accurately and carefully collected.

3. Processed in a transparent, consistent, and fair manner.
4. Erased or destroyed where no longer needed and subject to regular monitoring.

If your organization is processing personal data in a way that does not comply with the GDPR, you may be subject to fines of up to 4% of your global annual revenue or €20 million (whichever is greater), or both.

The GDPR also requires that you have a Data Protection Officer (DPO) in place to help ensure your organization complies with the GDPR. The DPO must have the authority to ensure compliance and the resources to carry out their duties.

In order to be compliant with the GDPR, your organization will likely need to change its data processing practices. DPL is a key part of ensuring your organization complies with the GDPR.

Overall, the GDPR requires that personal data be collected, processed, and stored in a manner that is consistent with GDPR principles. DPL is a key part of ensuring that personal data is collected, processed, and stored in a way that is compliant with the GDPR.
