SalesLoft Is Ready For GDPR
And We'll Make Sure You Are Too
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). What is it?
If you’re wondering what GDPR is (and who it applies to), you’re not alone. This page is designed to help you understand exactly how it will affect you. As you read, you’ll find all of the resources you need to understand GDPR. Let’s start with a definition.
General Data Protection Regulation: A European regulation taking effect May 25, 2018, affecting the protection of data by “controllers,” those who determine the means and purposes of data processing and “processors,” those who handle data on behalf of controllers.
Many of SalesLoft’s customers will fall into the “controller” category as they are collecting and using personal data about their prospects. And since SalesLoft falls under the “processor” category, we are required by the GDPR to treat our customers’ data as if it were our own.
