For example, have you ever noticed those shoes you looked at online that seem to follow you around the internet? You can\u2019t get away from them. That\u2019s because when you looked at the shoes, the shop you visited used a thing called &#8220;cookies&#8221; that embedded on your IP address and followed you on your social, mobile and other feeds. If you browsed in private or &#8220;incognito&#8221; mode, your IP address would be hidden and therefore there\u2019d no way for the shop to embed cookies to attempt to re-engage you. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cookies can be really helpful because they help your sites load faster, and can remind you about tools and trainings you forgot about. But, now with the GDPR, the use of those cookies must be disclosed and you have the option to attempt to rid yourself of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Does the GDPR Apply to Small Businesses?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The big question, especially for U.S.-based business owners, is \u201cDoes this apply to me? Why should I comply with European rules?\u201d You can determine if GDPR applies to you and if you need to comply if any of the<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&nbsp;four factors applies to your business:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marketing in an EU-based language<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marketing using domains that end in EU-based abbreviations (e.g., domain.es for Spain, domain.uk for the UK)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marketing that targets the users of an EU-country (this includes the UK)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Accepting payment in Euros<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Can I Ignore GDPR?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">No one knows yet how the GDPR will affect U.S.-based businesses, but I\u2019m here to offer you three things to consider:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b>We don\u2019t know how GDPR will be enforced and to what extent.&nbsp;<\/b>It\u2019s too early to tell how and under what conditions the EU will enforce the GDPR. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either bluffing or trying to sell you something. This is a huge shake-up of internet laws and will have an impact for years to come. However, we only know what we know now, which is that compliance is mandatory if the GDPR applies to you, and this is not going away. Also, we still don\u2019t know how the EU will assert jurisdiction over non-compliant U.S.-based businesses. That\u2019s a big, legal way of saying the U.S. has enough to worry about at the local, state and national level. It\u2019s highly unlikely that U.S.-based government agencies and authorities are ready or willing to exert any amount of resources enforcing the laws of the European Union, even if they had the ability to do so.<\/li>\n<li><b>There could be fines.&nbsp;<\/b>The EU is threatening huge fines of up to \u20ac20 million for companies that gross less than \u20ac20 million annually in revenue. If history lends any signs, fines will likely be modest compared to these big &#8220;scare&#8221; numbers, but healthy enough that you don\u2019t want to deal with them.<\/li>\n<li><b> &nbsp;The biggest blow could actually come from the SAAS we know and love.&nbsp;<\/b>Personally, the fines aren\u2019t the scariest or most likely problem for me. I worry more about waking up, logging into my favorite SAAS platforms (like <a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/?utm_source=rts&amp;utm_medium=content&amp;utm_campaign=gdpr_christinascalera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HoneyBook<\/a>, Quickbooks and Convertkit) and realizing my account has been frozen or terminated due to non-compliance. Because it remains to be seen how the EU will force U.S.-based businesses to comply (see #1, above), and the help from U.S.-based government authorities is unlikely at this point, this could be how the EU forces us all into compliance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>How to Be GDPR Compliant by the May 25, 2018 Deadline<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are three main tools you need to get into compliance by the deadline. <\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Include Terms &amp; Conditions and a Privacy Policy.<\/strong> You need a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/thecontractshop.com\/products\/terms-conditions-privacy-policy-for-your-website\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Terms &amp; Conditions + Privacy Policy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that houses all your basic compliance, legal and contact information. This is a great idea to have even if the GDPR doesn\u2019t apply to you, because it informs users what they can and cannot do on your site, what information you collect and what you\u2019ll do with that information. It\u2019s also a helpful place to house any refund or payment information if you sell products or sell services directly through your website. If you don\u2019t want to DIY, this&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/thecontractshop.com\/products\/terms-conditions-privacy-policy-for-your-website\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">privacy policy template<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> with easy-to-fill blanks can be copied and pasted into a new page on your website.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Obtain consent.<\/strong> Your Privacy Policy is sadly no longer enough when it comes to informing visitors what you do with their information. A key change with the GDPR is the mandatory and affirmative consent you must obtain at the point of opt-in. Before the GDPR, you have probably noticed lots of phrases like \u201cwe will not rent, sell or spam your contact information\u201d under the opt-in box where you input your name and email address. After the GDPR comes into effect, there must be some kind of statement as to what information is collected and what the marketer (aka, you) will do with that info as well as some kind of consent via a checkbox or dropdown menu stating as much.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare to provide data.<\/strong> The final crucial feature of the GDPR, and difference from what exists now, is the ability of the &#8220;data subject&#8221; to request their data back at any time. Site users will be able to not only request they be unsubscribed, but they can also request their customer records and other marketing information that has been compiled on them. Think of it like your permanent record from elementary school, and now, people on your email list can request these permanent records back or deleted entirely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To learn more, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/easypeasygdpr.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">click here to check out a quick presentation on the GDPR,<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and to learn how you can be in compliance and back on your feet in no time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/?utm_source=rts&amp;utm_medium=content&amp;utm_campaign=gdpr_christinascalera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-14080 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/contracts-trial-button.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/contracts-trial-button.png 1200w, https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/contracts-trial-button-300x76.png 300w, https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/contracts-trial-button-1024x260.png 1024w, https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/contracts-trial-button-768x195.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, is on everyone\u2019s minds (and in all our inboxes) lately.
