Microsoft applies GDPR globally

Microsoft has announced that it will expand the rights available to Europeans with the new EU privacy regulation worldwide.

Ο General Data Protection Regulation που θα τεθεί σε ισχύ την Παρασκευή, προσφέρει νέα δικαιώματα στους κατοίκους της ΕΕ, όπως το δικαίωμα λήψης δεδομένων που έχει συλλέξει μια εταιρεία αλλά και την επιλογή διαγραφής δεδομένων εάν ο no longer consents to the company owning them.Microsoft

Consumers will also have the right to transfer their data to another service provider but also to know how each company that stores it processes it.

Microsoft will therefore offer the additional rights not only to European consumers, but also globally.

"As an EU regulation, the GDPR creates significant new rights specifically for individuals in the European Union, but we believe that the GDPR establishes important principles for the global community." Reported Julie Brill, Microsoft Corporate Vice President and Deputy General Manager.

"We will extend the rights that the GDPR brings to all our consumers around the world."

Microsoft has updated its privacy statement under the GDPR and says it will offer all users the same rights as EU users.

If Microsoft has obtained your consent to the use of your personal data, you may withdraw it at any time.
You can ask , διαγραφή και ενημέρωση των προσωπικών σας δεδομένων και αν θέλετε να τα μεταφέρετε αλλού, μπορείτε να χρησιμοποιήσετε provided by Microsoft to do so. If they are not available, you can contact Microsoft support.

The statement also clarifies that all users will be able to restrict the use of personal data used by Microsoft for direct marketing purposes.

Google also released an updated which will enter into force on the same day as the GDPR. To present the new policy, it uses images and videos to better explain complex legal terms.
