Data protection has become a top priority – companies must pay attention to compliance with the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). With organisations increasingly relying on Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions to store, organise and distribute digital assets, it is important to ensure that your DAM solution is GDPR compliant.
GDPR and its implications for DAM solutions
Enacted by the European Union in 2018, the GDPR aims to protect the personal data and privacy of individuals. It applies to all organisations that process personal data of EU citizens, regardless of the location of the company. Compliance with the GDPR is not just a legal obligation, it is a business imperative.
The DAM solution helps businesses to comply with GDPR requirements
DAM systems centralise all of a company’s digital assets, making them easier to track and manage. Modern DAM systems are equipped with advanced security features such as role-based permissions and regular security audits. These measures protect personal data from unauthorised access and cyber threats.
DAM solutions usually offer built-in tools for GDPR compliance, such as data anonymisation and a licence management tool. DAM solutions also provide analytics, giving the opportunity to gain important insights into the use of data. By choosing a DAM solution that puts data protection and compliance at the forefront, you can ensure that your digital assets are managed securely and effectively.
