The GDPR as an opportunity for a better customer experience 🤝

Building trust is key to a pleasant customer experience - especially for those dealing with claims, as their ultimate goal is to turn frustrated customers into happy ones.

With the GDPR coming into effect in May 2018 EU citizens will have more control over their data and will be able to exercise new rights, and these benefits extend to people outside the EU also!

As data security is a growing concern among consumers, acheiving GDPR compliance will be a challenging but rewarding asset, giving businesses an opportunity to build trust among their customers and enhance their brand image.

Claimable is a customer-first platform committed to helping businesses provide a better claims experience and to deliver an outstanding customer service.

For this reason, in this blog post I, not only explain how we help users to comply with the regulation, but I also provide some tips on how to use the GDPR to enhance customer experience:
