Hello Everyone,
Short post today as an information to be very carefull while collecting and processing the data.
In the last two weeks two very big cases happened and big fines were issued because of the companies non-compliant method of doing their business.
One company was issued huge ammount of money for releasing data to other sources without prior consent from the data subject or legitimati interest that they can rely on . And this is a company that their services are used by milions of people everyday.
The other company made almost 200.000 nuisance calls, and even the company is selling call-blocking systems.
So, before you start anything new that you are not sure that is GDPR Compliant , or complaint with any other data protection regulative, do a research on it, or get a help from companies that are dealing with this issues.
Have a nice day everyone and be careful !!!
