Understanding GDPR Scope and Business Impact

This lesson explains when the GDPR applies to a business, what kinds of personal data and processing activities bring an organization into scope, and why scope assessment is the first practical step in a compliance program.

By the end of the lesson, learners should be able to identify common GDPR triggers, distinguish controller and processor responsibilities at a high level, spot business activities that create GDPR exposure, and explain the commercial impact of getting scope wrong.
