Addressing data privacy requests

The Track-It! product provides capabilities that help administrators address the personal data protection and privacy requirements associated with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The GDPR is a set of rules and principles governing the handling of personal data of individuals located in the European Union (EU). There are many requirements pertaining to personally identifiable information (personal data) data with GDPR, but those that most directly affect data within Track-It! would be the ability to locate personally identifiable information, delete personally identifiable information, and anonymize personally identifiable information.
