<div dir="ltr"><div>I looked at the regulations, and we do have personal data in our database so the regulations apply. However, it appears that the previous regulations also applied. The new regulations appear to be mostly concerned with ensuring that the regulations (and penalties for noncomplience) of all of the EU member states are consistent with one another than with adding anything new for a small organization like the IAOA. However, it did make me wonder why we are collecting all of this personal data.

Valter just learned that on May 25 2018 a new regulation will be<br>
enforced in the EU [1].<br>
<br>
The Italian association will be still alive in May (not just because we<br>
won't have time for ending the killing process by then but also because<br>
we shall wait till after FOIS for that since a contract will be made in<br>
name of IAOA-Italy).<br>
So we should make sure (what will remain of) our Italian-IAOA website<br>
will be compliant.<br>
<br>
More importantly perhaps, Valter told me that any organization dealing<br>
with EU people should be compliant as well. So despite the fact that the<br>
new website will be linked to the Swiss association and be hosted in the<br>
US, the new website *has to* be compliant since we do have EU members.<br>
<br>
Has anyone already examined what these new regulations entail, in<br>
concrete terms and can tell us whether or not much change needs to be<br>
implemented?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Laure<br>
