Is Webmecanik GDPR compliant?

Webmecanik is a pioneer in GDPR compliance for marketing automation software. We have well before May 28, 2018, put in place the necessary actions to the compliance. Moreover, our suppliers are too.

Thus, by choosing Webmecanik you make sure to select a compliant supplier, which will help you in your own compliance process (and we provide you with a contract for proper data outsourcing).

Is a marketing automation software GDPR compliant in the first place?

Careful: this will depend on three important points.

First, you need to make sure that the solution itself respects the GDPR, and this is not the case for all softwares. You are obliged to choose a supplier GDPR compliant if you want to respect it yourself.
Then, the software must provide you with all the features necessary to respect the GDPR rules (data anonymization, right to be forgotten, etc.). If certain technical rules are not respected, it is lost in advance.
Finally, it also depends on your use. If the use you make of it does not respect the good practices, it is done for! But do not panic on this point, Webmecanik experts have a  training module dedicated to GDPR compliance for your marketing team.
