FINLAND: Preparing to implement the GDPR
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) entered into force on 24 May 2016 and EU Member States are required to implement the Regulation from 25 May 2018. While the Regulation will be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States, there is a margin of maneuverability for Member States to specify their own rules or to restrict them via national legislation.
