Do your WordPress sites contain EU user or customer data? If so, today is GDPR day which means you now legally need to consider the privacy and security of their data whether or not you’re in the EU.
If you backup your WordPress site with EU user data, then you need to consider the security of those backups. UpdraftPlus Premium can protect the customer data in your backups by encryption and lock settings access. It can also delete old backups, which is another important consideration as you mustn’t keep unused EU user data under GDPR.
If you’d like to see our own privacy policies on how we protect your data (or unsubscribe from this newsletter), then we’ve built a helpful privacy centre here.
