Company data vs. personal data

Considering a company that does not work with end customers (B2B company), ie whose customers are other companies, I wanted to ask if the information becomes useless, as the customer data in this case are outside the perimeter of the GDPR, not being personal data of individuals?

Answer:

Indeed if you only deal with company data this would be out of the scope of the EU GDPR. However, consider that EU GDPR will be applicable in to your processing activities concerning your own employees for which you are a data controller.

So, even if your main business activities deals exclusively with B2B there might customers there might be some other processing activities that are subject to the EU GDPR.
