Does your Non-Profit organization collect personal data on people? People in Europe? And what is Personal Data anyway? Does your organization have an office in Europe? Store data in Europe? Process data in Europe? What is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)? Does it apply to your organization? What policies does your organization need to have? What technical measures need to be in place? What's the SysAdmin's role in all this? Could a SysAdmin be liable?
Marc Paré will provide us with an overview of the GDPR, and outline some of the concerns for Non-Profit SysAdmins.

- Dutch government report says Microsoft Office telemetry collection breaks GDPR | ZDNet
- Investigators said they've identified the "large scale and covert collection of personal data" through Office's built-in telemetry collection capabilities.
- They said Microsoft engages in this telemetry collection covertly and without properly informing users.
- The report said investigators didn't find any official documentation about what information Microsoft collects through Office and no way of turning Office telemetry off, raising a serious privacy concern for all current Office users, regardless of geographical location.
