The European Union set an effective date of May 25, 2018, for the General Data Protection Regulation, which replaces its Data Protection Directive of 1995 and significantly expands personal privacy rights for EU residents. Not only is the GDPR more enforceable compared to the DPD, it applies to entities with no physical EU presence if they control or process covered personal information of EU residents. US institutions with EU-based operations or significant numbers of EU residents as students — particularly those delivering distance education programs to such students within the EU — should be in the final stages of implementing GDPR-compliant practices now.
