Automation Anywhere Enterprise Platform Compliance-Ready With GDPR

Involving Personally Identifiable Information

Automation Anywhere, Inc. announced that its platform is compliance-ready with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The GDPR law goes into effect on May 25, 2018 and is considered one of the industry’s most stringent data privacy regulations. It is designed to simplify and unify data privacy laws across Europe and give citizens in the EU unprecedented control of their Personally Identifiable Information (PII). The GDPR defines rules for storing, accessing and processing the personal data of any EU citizen, in any EU member country or territory, even if the processing of data is performed outside the EU.
