No, that is true. There are multiple interpretations here. I gave the most optimistic one!

Why would they single out those specific uses then, if you consider express prohibitions are necessary?

Comment #37348215
Key word is "may" be completely irrelevant! Of course, if you're providing an Excel of customer data, it will be relevant if the user is in the EU. But still, consent won't be rele…

GDPR and indeed any data protection laws may well be completely irrelevant in the context of Microsoft's services. Even if relevant, consent is unlikely to be a relevant as a proce…

To an extent, think about vested interests here. Mozilla has little to gain by showcasing how clear a rival's new service agreement is! The AI services section seems pretty clear i…

We do see a few references to cookies in the ePrivacy Directive but absolutely right to drive home the point that it's technology agnostic!

Love the contrast between the title and the text. This isn't even about GDPR, it's about a completely different piece of legislation, the E-Privacy Directive. This is completely ag…

I wouldn't trust any article that purports to be about GDPR that uses the term 'PII' a term which itself isn't anywhere to be seen in the regulation! In reality an IP address is ge…

Yes, of course. I was just explaining why I thought you'd misinterpreted the original poster's comment.

No, they're implying that there's been a failure by pro-leavers to acknowledge that many of these roles have been in the recent past been performed by immigrants from Europe. Now w…

The concept of processing necessary for the performance of a contract is interpreted extremely narrowly by data protection law. Rightly so, because otherwise it would give entities…

I would strongly recommend assignment to the company. As you allude to, any investor will want to see core IP in the ownership of the company, and to not have this, even in the pre…

I think the point is that Tachyons should be good for 90/95% of the styling you want to apply to the site. I think the creator would be the first to say that if you need something …
