QUOTE (newres @ Jun 30 2019, 01:30 PM) There’s no personal data on here. TDH is being TDH. Wrong. I don't think you know what "personal data" defines. Your username/password are stored; otherwise you couldn't log on! You gave a real-world, active email address (and other data) when you first signed up and you may have created a profile. Your IP address (and probably MAC address) will be stored. Your posts are stored. Under current data protection regulation, you have a right to be forgotten; which means all your posts/login/etc. have to be deleted

I suspect it's a gray area but I'm happy to admit I haven't a clue. Being a business owner wouldn't make me an expert. https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/282...data-under-gdpr

QUOTE (James_Trinder @ Jul 1 2019, 01:51 PM) At one point just before it was introduced GDPR was the bane of my existence but these days it is rarely mentioned at all. My understanding of it is that the real purpose of it is not to prosecute companies who are trying to get it to work but make a few mistakes along the way but rather to present another tool to help in enforcement against companies who are deliberately spamming with unsolicited texts/emails/phone calls. Lots of firms have already been fined and it is my understanding that firms have also been given time to get their houses in order. The carrot will be removed soon and a stick will replace it...

Sarcasm and lowest form of wit come to mind. Data protection is serious. Someone could rob you blind if you are not literate in these matters. I bring up a serious issue that's not Brexit related and you still can't help yourself. Brainwashed bigot.
