“The newly-introduced and long-awaited European Regulation on privacy will firstly benefit individuals by strengthening their data protection rights and enhancing their trust in digital and analogue environments but will also significantly simplify the legal framework for businesses, organisations that institutionally handle personal data and the public sector. The new privacy regulations will encourage the development of the digital economy throughout the European Union and further field, in line with the strategic objectives set by the European Union due to be completed by 2020 and the more specific objectives on the European Digital Agenda. To sum up, this reform ensures that the protection of individuals’ data is stepped up a level while obliging economic operators (and more generally any organisation which routinely handles personal data) to adapt its privacy policy to comply with the new and more stringent digital safety standards, or face – as a deterrent to non-compliance – stiff penalties.”
