It doesn't.
It's made to force you to comply when you become bigger.
- mholt 8y agoSo it has clauses about project/service/product size/popularity?
- dangrossman 8y agoIn fact, yes. For example, the record-keeping requirements don't apply to most businesses with less than 250 employees. The DPO requirements don't apply to most businesses with less than 250 employees. The entire regulation doesn't apply if you don't target people in the EU and don't offer goods or services to people in the EU. Some of the requirements only apply if you process data on large numbers of people regularly, rather than occasionally. And there's a recital calling on member states that enact and enforce the regulation to pay special attention to the unique needs of micro, small and medium sized businesses.

If you're talking about a tiny side project with basic data protection and you're not doing social scraping, GDPR will likely ignore you.
