GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation, a set of rules governing the handling of personal data.
The European Union’s GDPR can apply to an organization outside the EU when it offers goods or services to people in the EU or monitors their behaviour there.

For a client experience team, the useful question is which records, activities and markets a responsibility covers.
