But today, there are additional opportunities – if not expectations – for marketers to use contextual data to better reach and engage customers through the optimal channel(s).

The General Data Protection Regulation – or GDPR – is a European Union (EU) law that protects the rights of individuals with respect to their data. Adopted as an EU law in April 2016, organizations that hold data about any resident of the EU must be compliant by May 2018.
