A few months before the GDPR comes into force, an international survey carried out by Mailjet among companies reveals that start-ups have absolutely not taken the required measures to ensure their compliance...
In order to raise awareness among start-ups of the Telegram Number obligations of the new European data protection regulation (GDPR), Mailjet carried out an international survey (launched on Product Hunt) in order to assess the level of compliance with the main obligations of this regulation which will enter effective May 25. Of more than 4,000 start-ups surveyed , mainly established in France, the results are relatively disappointing since the overall compliance score is 4.1 out of 10 . Companies in the banking and insurance sectors are the best performers (4.4/10) while those specializing in construction and real estate are the last with a score of 3.2/10. Ready to collect data but not to protect it Despite this low level of compliance with the GDPR, 91% of start-ups, all fields of activity combined, indicate that they collect the personal data of their customers .
A figure which shows very little variation from one sector of activity to another. While banking and insurance professionals are in the lead (93%), the bottom of the ranking still follow them closely (85% for the tourism and accommodation sectors, or only 8% of less). These figures demonstrate that, whatever the field of activity, the collection of personal data is at the heart of the concerns of start-ups. If this data is not so astonishing, the same cannot be said for the protection of this data. Only 29% of start-ups say they protect them properly using encryption technologies and only 34% say they have an alert system in the event of an intrusion into their systems putting this data at risk.
