Data Privacy Rules for Selling Internationally

Did you know that the European Union's comprehensive data privacy rules, the General Data Protection Regulation or GDPR, can apply to U.S. companies and that your company could be subject to investigations or fines, even if you don’t think you’re doing business in the EU?

Did you also know that nine countries across East-Southeast Asia and North America offer a common data privacy certification for companies to comply with domestic regulations and transfer data internationally?

Join the International Trade Administration’s U.S. Commercial Service and Ann Arbor SPARK Tuesday, August 3 for a webinar on data privacy rules for selling internationally. Hear from data privacy experts from the International Trade Administration’s digital services industry specialists on how to comply with the various data privacy rules around the globe, including the GDPR. Learn what kind of data is impacted and the steps to get your website and technology into compliance.
