No sneaky tricks—just good, old-fashioned transparency.</li><li><b>Secure Your Data</b>: Ensure you have robust security measures to protect any personal information you’re storing.</li><li><b>Know the Rights</b>: Be aware of the rights your customers have under GDPR—like the right to access their data or have it deleted.</li></ul><p> </p><p>And here’s where <b>Complainz</b> comes in.
