Is following M3AAWG enough for GDPR compliance?

No, M3AAWG guidelines focus on deliverability best practices, not regulatory compliance. Following M3AAWG does not automatically satisfy GDPR requirements, though there is significant overlap.

GDPR requires specific documentation, rights management, data protection measures, and accountability that M3AAWG guidelines do not fully address. Legal compliance requires dedicated GDPR analysis.

M3AAWG and GDPR are complementary. Good deliverability practices support GDPR compliance goals around consent and respect. But GDPR compliance requires deliberate attention to its specific requirements.
