GDPR Consent? - GoFuckYourself.com

HairyChick · 05-16-2018, 05:09 PM

I’m signed up to many newsletters and updates to specific websites. Just received this notice via email.

I’ve not read about this. Is this something adult sites need to be aware of? Or just mainstream ?

The law doesn't care what you do for business. Is your business based in the EU or multi-national doing business with EU customers? If yes, it applies to your business.

It doesn't matter if I'm in business or where I am. I'm not the one sending it. Research showed me it is for EU folks with websites and sharing info.

I have had about 20 e-mails from various companies, even my bank in the UK asking me to confirm my agreement to the new use of personal information rules. Giving customers the option to control how that information is used or disseminated is a great idea ?

adult needs to be aware as well.. makes join page submissions kinda odd to me tho

Still not sure what is new with GDPR, been hearing of that for months but I couldn't find any rules for webmasters as to what is required or what is going to change.

We already have strict privacy requirements even without this - like you have to register your submit forms when collecting data to the local government agency, even if the form has columns for just the first and last name, contact info etc. You also have to maintain documentation regarding your data collecting systems and safety measures undertaken...

Of course, you need the consent of the persons to collect and store their private data and if the consent is withdrawn you have to safely destroy the private data.

Also, photos are considered private data too if you can indentify a person in them.

If you had employess working with private data you collect (e.g. if you run a company collecting and storing private data on their servers) those employees must have a special certificate for working with private data.

Imagine all this crap and now even more with GDPR? WTF...

Curious how many of those old rules were even enforced?

As years pass and more and more countries catch up with their own legislation regarding various issues, running online businesses could get trickier and trickier.

The big companies do comply for sure as the fines can be very high.

Ordinary people or sole traders running small sites often don't know that they need to register every contact form or any registration system that asks for personal data. You also need to inform the persons about who collects their personal data (your info) , to what extent and for what purpose.

There is an exception for e-shops (if run by the owner , so there are no employees) since customers bying goods online enter into buy-sell agreement and therefore there is a legally given obligation to collect personal data for the purpose of that agreement.

You also need to keep track and docs of any incidents of personal data breach and inform the authority about those incidents. Totally fucked up shit.

On the other hand... if I ask FB to delete my account, they completely remove my data without any issues..

If you operate a web business anywhere that receives visitors from EU, GDPR applies to you.

Now's better than never to start becoming compliant by contacting a legal professional versed in the issue.

I've been getting a few questions about this at YNOT Mail too.

HairyChick · 05-17-2018, 06:06 PM

I’ve gotten another dozen emails, all from mainstream shopping sites. Most were just notifying their customers of the new policy.

BlackCrayon · 05-18-2018, 08:20 AM

this is a clusterfuck.

no more whois for domains

thanks euro privacy fuckwads!

The effective day is coming up, I recommend anybody serious about their business to get familiar with this because the repercussions are major.

For starters - you're basically not allowed to get anybody register or use your site as long as they don't give consent with its privacy policy.

So I recommend everybody to look into this.
