The Customer Satisfaction Surveys is an interesting one. I don't think they need Consent currently - although sending them repeatedly isn't right.

Once a year for phone suppliers is "reasonable" I'd say...

Retired Lawyers, that's who'll be playing silly buggers with the SAR's and RTF's

It's all going to be a bit of a minefield, post May 25th isn't it

or write to them - as in Post. Don't need consent for that. Rev interesting policy on your "Soft Opt-In's" - "you're a customer who's bought something off us (legitimate interest, with a pre-ticked opt-in)" Do you feel you retain your legitimate interest if the customer subsequen...

correct.

Soft opt-in is very specific - it probably does apply to many people on your company's mailing list, Rev, but it'd be dangerous for plenty of businesses to rely on it: https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-pecr/electronic-and-telephone-marketing/electronic-mail-marketing/ says, 'you must ha...

This is where good legal advice is vital: Soft Opt-In There is an exception called the ‘soft opt-in’. This means that consent is not required if you are sending marketing message about similar products and services to your customers/clients or those you have negotiated with to provide products or s...

That's what an ICO checklist says, but it's not what GDPR says. OK from the actual regulation itself... http://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-5419-2016-INIT/en/pdf Section 32 relating to consent... "Consent should be given by a clear affirmative act establishing a freely given, speci...

Soft opt in was fine, and is still fine under GDPR, e.g. a pre-ticked box, as long as the wording was clear, unambiguous etc. so long as we're talking about processing on the basis of Consent (rather that one of the other legal basis's of processing), the ICO disagrees. https://ico.org.uk/for-organ...

A great example of the interpretation is this: how many companies are emailing you now asking you to re-consent or refresh your consent? It’s unnecessary unless you were already in breach of the current DPA regs when collecting those email addresses originally. But loads of big companies think they...

Then you should get some legal advice as Rev recommended. Lots of GDPR will likely apply to you

If the named people have signed ts&cs with the event that says their data will be published, and you’re just reproducing publicly available information, you’ll probably be OK. The problem is that there’s no test cases yet so it’s hard to really interpret what will/won’t be acceptable. If this i...

I was charged £75 for 2 glasses of Champagne and 1 glass of Prosecco at the Connaught Hotel...

Fvckers even added service charge of over £8 to the bill...

Really sorry to hear Mark.
