GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
GDPR came into effect on 25 May and it sets out to bolster the rights citizens of the EU have over their data which is held by companies.
The regulation aims to give people greater power over their data and make companies more transparent in how they deal with people's data.
GDPR applies to almost every organisation. If you control or process personal data relating to EU residents – whether they're customers or your own staff – you now have to do so in a way that complies with GDPR.
Organisations don't have to be based in the EU to be bound by GDPR. They only need to be processing or holding data on EU residents in order for GDPR to apply to them.
How we comply
Right of access: Individuals can ask to see the information we have stored about them.
Right to recertification: Individuals can ask us to have the data we have stored about them updated.
Right to erasure: Individuals can ask to have their data erased.
Right to restrict processing: Individuals can ask us to stop processing their data. When they do, we will delete their data.
Right to data portability: Individuals can ask to have their data sent to another Data Controller. You can honor those requests by sending the data via CSV after export from Japan Ski Tours/Fuji Mountain Guides.
